I have been off work for a week and other than a small amount of planning and starting to think of the nano story I want to do this year I haven’t had time to do much else. Just decided to take the rest of this week off, this is for several reasons. Writing, some…
I’m not sure if I am just not like other writers but I have no thought to a message behind my writing. I just want to create an expansive series of books for others to enjoy. When I achieve this dream someone, somewhere will unearth the real message behind my writing. Whatever that is…..
NaNo is done, I have a couple of A4 printed versions of my book (13th Earth – Before the Dawn) so I can do some red penning and start to try and sort it out, I think I will set myself some goals and try to get it into a place where I can self…
