Beta Readers Wanted – Historical Fantasy

So, the time approaches. Hold strong your nerves, have courage, take heart. At the end of May, I will* have finished revisions on Daughter of Kings. If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know this as Queen of Hearts. As I've mentioned a couple of times, I made the decision to split Queen of Hearts into two volumes. Daughter …

How Time Flies: Round 2 Week 2

I'd like the say that despite what the colours below might indicate, I am quite pleased with what I achieved this week. Especially as my computer is now at the point of crashing at least once per session. So this was basically me: Anyway, moving straight along.... These were my goals for the week: Reading Sasha (probably) …

Introducing…Eriden

Yes, finally, you get to meet Eriden. This interview doesn't quite fit the formula of my previous character interviews because Eriden is not fond of formulas (except the deadly kind), so I decided to have a little fun with it. 🙂 The door swings open. “You’re the chronicler?” I look up from my desk to …

Introducing…Hrithur

This week votes for Eriden and Hrithur were tied but I decided to go with Hrithur as we haven't heard from any of the boys yet.  The door to my office swings open, squealing on its ancient hinges. I look up from the notepad on my desk to see Hrithur framed in the doorway. His …

The Sweet Taste of Success

November 30th. The last day of November. That last day of NaNoWriMo. This past month has gone so incredibly fast, no doubt in part thanks to the craziness of NaNo. I'm pleased to say that this year, my second year participating, I met all my goals and reached 50,000 words. If I'm honest, that count …

An Open Letter to Writers of Any Creed: November Updates

Weekend's greetings, friends, Today is Sunday and so it's time for another ROW80 update but I thought I'd do something a little different today. Rather than a list of subheadings with a few notes underneath, I'll give you a more in depth update on everything. Yep, that's right, get excited. 😛 So it's over half …

Time is of the Essence

This is my motto at the moment. November is always a super busy month, I think for most people. Wednesday has come around without warning AGAIN which is perhaps not unusual considering there are only seven days to choose from. Anyway. Wednesday's require me to talk about two exciting things, ROW80 and WIPpet Wednesday. I …

Le WIPpet and le ROW80 (Pardon my French)

So. Where to begin? The last few weeks have been beyond hectic but now all my assignments are done and I'm two days away from the mid-semester break I feel I can begin to relax a little and refocus on writing and languages, both learning and constructing. I did a general wrap up on the …

The Last Parade of the Darlings

Greetings my bloggy pals. How are we all today? Yes, it is Wednesday. Or at least in some parts of the world. I started prepping this post at 11:59 according to my timezone so that totally still counts as Wednesday, right? That means many things but most importantly WIPpet hosted by the gracious K. L. …

*INSERT CREATIVE TITLE HERE*

Today I'll be talking to you about all the things. Yay! 🙂 On the agenda - WIPpet Wednesday because it is Wednesday, ROW80 because I really need to update that, NaNoWriMo because I think I've finally worked out what to do for it (even though it is a ridiculous number of months away). But first, …
