So the year has started, and again I am goign through what I have said I want to achieve and I came to a realisation. I am trying to do too much, and as a result, I don’t get much of anything done. So… I am going to step back from “planning” too much and…
It’s been months since I have posted on this blog, not that anyone reads it but the act of putting down some words is usually cathartic for me. I plan a lot and normally don’t get far but at least it gets me doing something. Lately, my main focus has been reading, I joined a…
Well, it is almost midnight on the 31st of October, and although I would normally have a good plan in place for NaNo by now, this year I don’t really have anything prepped. I had planned to pick up my Fantasy novel Rise of the Fallen and see if I could finish it, but given…
Well, when I started this I didn’t think I would manage to keep up with it. The post I have made throughout the month have not been long ones, most of them have just been small diary format. But it has got me writing something every day and that was the point. Not entirely sure…
Despite all of my future planning and declarations I haven’t managed to do any writing as such this year so far, just some more world building. I think again I am stuck with too many on going projects and how-to books on the go at once, so instead of concentrating on one thing I end…

July 2011….. This is when I started this Blog, and from reading the first post I was proclaiming myself taking control of my procrastination and doing something with my life. If you were to scroll through the post chances are you would periodically see the same declaration, I would really like to know why committing…
A friend of mine that I regularly talk to about writing has just finished his second book (1st was self published) in all of the time it has taken him to write these two books I have…. wait for it…. written less than one short story in the universe I have been busily planning. It…
It’s been nearly two months, I thought I was at a place of regular writing but that hasn’t been the case. Camp Nano was a bust, I didn’t do much at all for it. I was chosen to be on a jury for the British Fantasy Society award, Best Anthology. So I have been reading…
