In my previous blog post, Inspiration: A Ghost Story, as well as talking about my writing inspiration, I told a story about a paranormal experience that I had when I was younger. This wasn’t the only time that strange things have happened to me, and I’m going to use this blog and probably others to … Continue reading Ghostly Occurrences in Apartment 42: Part I

A Bit of a Dip: Taking a Break
This blog is a little late today as it took me a while to write it for reasons I'll explain below. It’s been a stressful few weeks. We’ve moved into our new house, and since then, it’s been pretty much non-stop with people coming in and out doing jobs. I wish I could say that … Continue reading A Bit of a Dip: Taking a Break
The Return!
Well, after a couple of weeks off while we moved house, I'm back. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, moving house is stressful! We're now fully moved into our new home and have been for around a week or so. We've spent most of the past couple of weeks either moving our … Continue reading The Return!
100th Post!
As we’re in the middle of our move and I’m currently not doing any writing due to this, I wasn’t going to do a blog post, but I noticed that this would be my 100th post, and I didn’t want it to pass by without acknowledging it. I started this blog back in September 2020, … Continue reading 100th Post!
Inspiration: A Ghost Story
What inspires you? A couple of weeks ago, I asked my fellow writers over on Twitter where they get their inspiration from for their writing, and although answers varied, a number of them did come up with similar answers. Mainly TV, movies, games and music. I’ve talked before about how some of my writing has … Continue reading Inspiration: A Ghost Story
In Rays of the Light: Weird but Oddly Good (Review)
First off, let me say that I'm switching up my posts this week and doing my gaming post today and writing on Wednesday. The reason for this slight schedule change is that - if you didn't already know - my next book Blindsighted will be released on Wednesday, so I'll be doing a special post … Continue reading In Rays of the Light: Weird but Oddly Good (Review)
Blindsighted: A New Book on the Way
Welcome to another week I started writing what became Blindsighted when I was trying to get back into writing after being unable to get going on anything when struggling with my mental health. Starting a new story really helped me get back into writing and calm my brain, which at the time was going a … Continue reading Blindsighted: A New Book on the Way
Another Monday
On a Monday I usually do a writing update and was hoping that today I would have the news that I finished editing the proof copy of Blindsighted, but unfortunately I don't. Editing is taking a little longer than I had originally expected for one reason or another, but I'm still doing what I can … Continue reading Another Monday
Paperback Proof Editing: Blindsighted
It’s that time once again. Time to go through a paperback proof copy of my next book – in this case, it’s Blindsighted. I did this with my last book, The Next Stage, and it really helped me pick up on some errors that I had missed entirely when going through my digital drafts. When … Continue reading Paperback Proof Editing: Blindsighted
The Third Draft Continued
It’s Monday again, which means I’m back to going through my latest draft of Blindsighted. Last week, I decided to change the style from third-person to first-person and as much work as that’s created for me, I feel it was the best decision. It now feels a little more personal, and for the story, I’m … Continue reading The Third Draft Continued
