I’m doing it again, I had a conversation with a friend today about magic systems and had just about decided to restart my NaNo project Dragon Lords. Then I read an excerpt from an upcoming book from a favourite author, this made me pick up my NaNo book 13th Earth – Before the Dawn, reading…
I don’t like it…. I am one of those people that when I write a text it is grammatically correct, this mystifies some of the people I know. Whereas when I see people typing in text it drives me crazy. I know people that write in full text speak and more often than not I…
Although my love of writing covers both Sci-Fi and Fantasy I want to create a universe in which to write all of my Sci-Fi stories. I have started planning the races and the worlds and some of the history. I will update some of it here and hopefully some of the stories. I have called…
The challenge is approaching and I still haven’t had a word with Trace. I need to get a plan in place this weekend on how I am going to do this. Otherwise, I won’t do this. Just like I never got around to starting Camp Nano. So far Procrastination is winning. Onto the next battle.
It’s that time of the year again. Time for me to say I am preparing while making procrastination an art…. I mean time to get planning my Acomia Fantasy project. I need to flesh out some of the world-building as I have changed a few things and then minimally plot out the story. In the…

Motivation can be a strange thing, especially with me. I am lucky that I have an understanding wife and I have an office in which to work. Many people have to write anywhere they can but I have my Batcave, Sanctuary, Den. Whatever you want to call it, but, for me it can be both…
I have a new distraction, a new way to Procrastinate, and its name is Boston Legal. Recommended by a friend I watched the first couple of episodes tonight, I was drawn in as it has James Spader and William Shatner in it, there are a few other actors that you see all the time and never…
On the family day out on Saturday we ended the day in Whitby, so I could visit a second hand bookshop there. While I was there I saw Misspent Youth again, I had previously not bought it as I wasn’t sure if I had it. But now that I can check my collection with the…
I have done it again. Less than a day from my sweeping statement and instead of doing a load of writing planning I was going to do today I have been playing games for the most of the day. Sometimes I wish I could slap myself in the face, although I had a fun day…
