Keep Poised!

Sorry for the silence (again)! I'm working on some new blog posts, but they are scraps, so there's nought I can actually post at the moment. But keep peeled! I just wanted to apologise for the absence. And for your patience, here's an exclusive extract of one of the novels I'm editing, H. ~ “Did …

In Print Again!

I feel like it's definitely been a long time since I've talked about my writing, since I've talked about the time I've spent hiding away and crafting characters. To be fair, it has been a while since I've really written properly. Editing has its slowness - which is one of the reasons I have never …

7QT: Twas the Week Before Christmas…

…And not much was stirring. That’s the problem with being on break from the usual routine; one loses the rhythm that once inspired blogging. 7 Quick Takes Friday is hosted by This Ain’t the Lyceum. ~1~ Well, it was my partner’s birthday on Sunday. A week before Christmas, poor lad, but at least we got …

7 Quick Takes: Of Work and Play

It's Friday, which means it's that time again for 7 Quick Takes, hosted over at This Ain't the Lyceum. ~1~ This week has been a hectic one. I suppose it started as it meant to go on. Non-UK people probably didn't hear, but I bet if you live in the south of England, you would've …

7 Quick Takes: A Recap of the Vanished

I know I’ve been absent from 7 Quick Takes Friday for a while now. Some of it has been out of my control – moving and all that jazz – but some of it, I must admit, has been laziness on my part. So, of all the things, this is a Friday catch-up, I suppose. …

What Are you Writing? Sunday Fiction

A day late, but I wanted to participate in Vanessa Rodriguez's Sunday Fiction Post-Up where writers share extracts of their WIP or latest works. After an exhausting weekend, I'm back home and I get some time to myself again. This extract is from my contemporary romance short, 'SoS', which I finished the first draft of …

7 Quick Takes – The World Continues Turning

I may be a day late for the Friday Quick Takes, but I thought I ought to add something in this blog of a weekly writing update around the reblogs and photos of the week I’ve been placing down. ~1~ Wow, what a week it’s been. Hard to believe that this time last week I …

Quick Takes Friday about Goals, Success, and Holidays

For this week's Quick Takes, I'm still in Scotland, but only just. Check out the rest of the hop over at This Ain't the Lyceum. ~1~ This week has been weird, in terms of weather. We had some almost torrential rain a couple of days - the kind of rain that is constant throughout the …

A Writer’s Game

A fun writer’s game by H L Wampler – bringing writers together with their extracts. I think it’s a good idea, add your own!

H.L. Wampler

So lets play a game.

Checking in with Alex

I’m still struggling to keep a schedule at the moment – and this week will be almost as hectic for me. I just wanted to make a quick post to detail what’s going on in my writing life at the moment. #WTCB This NeoVictorian world refuses to leave me alone, and I’m actually enjoying going …
