I suffer from this quite regularly, when thrust into the limelight of social interaction. To me, people are confusing, like I’m looking at them through fog or maybe a warped windowpane? I don’t get small-talk about the weather. What’s up with that? I don’t really talk about my kids much. It’s not that I don’t… Continue reading Discombobulated!
I think the answer is, probably…Actually, scratch that…Yes. Yes, I am!! I must be to put myself through the agonizing self-doubt that comes with hammering my way out of the mould others use to confine me. And defining me with society’s predisposed expectations. I want to be an author. I love to write. Wait! I am an author. Right?… Continue reading Am I Crazy?
Ok, let me clear up one very important fact, I am NOT always patient! If I decide to do a job, then I want to get on with it ASAP, and I don’t want to wait around. The same goes for most things in my life, such as waiting for keys to a new property,… Continue reading The Art Of Patience
I’d like nothing better than to write, draw, paint, make jewellery, improve my sowing skills, learn leather working, understand more of Steampunk, go to more conventions and take more holidays…Well, you get the idea…I’d love to do all the things I enjoy so much, but I know that I have responsibilities at home that often take… Continue reading Progress VS Reality…
It’s really hard to write some days. To get that motivation, the get up and go! I really try to get writing in every day, whether it’s doing a chapter for Wolf Born, research or the sketching out of ideas in one of many notebooks! However, sometimes, I need a rest. So, I go onto… Continue reading Stories and Steampunk…
Right, well, here goes, I’ve finally managed to edit the first chapter of Wolf Born, my original novel started way back when in 2004! It’s gone through many different incarnations. I’ve felt frustration at not being able, at times to complete it as quickly as I would like and having another little one in 2007,… Continue reading Making Progress At Last!
Well, as you may, or may not, have realised by now, I’m a writer!! I have a very active imagination and as such enjoy spending whatever free time I have to imagine strange new worlds and type out my ideas before they’re lost forever in the world of housework, DIY and being kept busy with… Continue reading Myth & Reality!
Dying for a Living by Kory M Shrum was an experience, let me tell you! The story is a wonderful mix of the supernatural with a dash of intrigue, mystery, murder and angels!! I really liked the main character, Jesse! Jesse was refreshing. Not some cardboard cut-out with no sense of personality, but rather a… Continue reading Reading a Really Good Book!!
Yeah, I know the title is a little long, but it sort of generalises what I’m about to fit into my long overdue blog! I’ve really enjoyed writing House of Sept, as readers of this blog and Wattpad know from all the gossip I’ve been planting into my blog and comments. I’ve sort of written… Continue reading Finishing a Full Length Novel. Harry Potter. And General Mooching…
Just had a holiday where getting an actual internet connection was a rare commodity, like seeing a dragon flying through the clouds! It was good to get away, but I do get a bit anxious when I leave my writing for so long, like I’m not working, or something’s missing! Also went to Chatsworth House… Continue reading Back Again!
