It’s that time of year again…when writers all across the world take a stab at knocking out 50,000 words in thirty days. That amounts to 1,667 a day, every day, for an entire month. No simple feat. So needless to say, us writers get a little bit wonky during these hectic days of November. Expect … Continue reading
You’ve done it. Those two glorious words all writers yearn for have been typed at last: ‘THE END.’ How does it feel? Momentous, awesome, and a little bit heartbreaking? Yep.

Either way, the written word is in my blood. It’s my life. My nearly every waking thought revolves around books I’ve … Continue reading

Last week, I was tagged by author Sorcha O’Dowd to take part in the writing process blog tour. 1. What am I working on at the moment? Something really personal, actually.
