I got tired of the endless Procrastination and the debilitating self doubt so I have signed up with the Writers Bureau for the Comprehensive Writing Course, I know some people do not like that sort of course but when people are useless like me at getting in gear and need the kick up the butt…
I never seem to remember when these start even though it would be good to participate as you can set your own goals so it wouldn’t have to be a mad dash to get 50k down in a month. But again I didn’t realise until a friend posted in a writers Facebook group. So now…

Can’t quite believe it, but December is almost over. Seems like this year has flown by so fast. I haven’t got much done with my writing this year, which is disappointing.

It’s the 30th December 2024 and we have one more day before the dawn of a new year. I haven’t made any concrete plans for 2025 other than some sweeping goals I would like to achieve. The first one is to start regular writing and, in that vein, complete the first draft of Rise of…
Because I have a splash of OCD it has always bothered me that some of my book collections are different formats or different sizes. As I like to keep my books and am building a nice collection for certain series I want to make sure I have a really nice, uniform collection. I am wanting…
