A Weekend In York.
This weekend I went away to York with friends I’ve known since school. We went on Friday and came back late yesterday. I had a ball. We laughed constantly and the weather was on our side. To say it was mid November the sky was blue and I got away with wearing just a light […]
The Second Book.
So while I’m waiting patiently to hear back from the agent, (Guess which word in that sentence doesn’t quite ring true) I thought I’d have a relaxing couple of weeks. After all I’m not going to the day job and then having to come and slave away at my home desk to complete the first […]
The Next Step And Waiting.
I haven’t really said anything about this on my blog because I was scared to. I was scared to because I didn’t want to put a jinx on anything. A jinx, can you believe that. I actually thought that if I discussed it too much the opportunity would go away. Now I’m tentative and cautious, […]
When To Stop Editing
As you know, I’m in that final push mode with my manuscript. I’ve polished and checked and polished some more, but I’m now wondering if I’m so close to it am I going to make a complete hash of it? I’m not sure which way is up anymore, or if I alter something, I wonder […]
It’s Just…..
Yesterday I went through my manuscript looking for words I overuse. I checked each one and if it wasn’t necessary it got cut. I cut over 100 of the word “just”. Really, what an innocuous word, but it had taken over the entire manuscript. Another one I’m halfway through checking is “that”. I was also […]

As you know, I’ve have failed miserably at keeping my blog up to date as I do this last push to completion. It’s not just the lack of upkeep though. Blogging works and is important, […]
The Wanderer Returns
It’s been a while since I last came on my blog. There are a couple of reasons for this. Firstly, because, on a personal note, I’ve generally had a terrible month and my blog and Facebook were forgotten about for a while. I continued in my attempts to keep moving my writing forward but there […]
How Do You Write?
I’ve been wondering about this for a while now, but as you have noticed, I haven’t been big on blogging recently. The main reason is my hours have been changed at work, so I’m working longer days, but on the flip side, I do get extra days off, so it’s all swings and roundabouts. The […]
Knowsley Safari Park
Yesterday the family and I took a trip to Knowsley safari park. The kids are back at school next week so I took a days annual leave to make one last day trip of the holidays. It turned out to be a lovely sunny day and I loved it. I’m a big kid really. Little […]
