Things I’m Working On
Every now and again I work on covers for my stories…just because. It’s another creative outlet. It doesn’t mean that’s what the covers will be for them. Not at all. It’s just a bit of fun. And of course, any publisher of my work will do their own covers. But having some fun is goodContinue reading “Things I’m Working On”
It’s Just Not Cricket
No matter how or where the game of cricket is played, it is cricket! The title and contents of this post are about something completely different. Read on to find out… To begin, I’ve been reading fantasy (and science fiction, historical fiction, as well as many other genres too) since as far back as IContinue reading “It’s Just Not Cricket”
Tinkering with Covers
Me being me, I like to tinker around until I feel things are just right. Sometimes, getting that feeling never happens, but sometimes I get very close. This is an example of a cover I did that’s pretty darn close to something I feel is just about right…for now! Anyway…until next time.
Recharging the Batteries
I know I haven’t been around much lately. I haven’t even been on social media much either (and I’ve realised how refreshing that is to be absent from such things, both for my time and my mental health). The thing is, after writing two stories in the Hereward series (over 250,000 words in less thatContinue reading “Recharging the Batteries”
A Story to Tell
Pictures are worth a thousand words they say. And it’s true. Nothing inspires me more than seeing good photos when it comes to my writing; and I usually create a lot more than a thousand words from pictures, let me tell you. I’m a very visual person. In my latest book, my fantasy epic (nowContinue reading “A Story to Tell”
The Things That Inspire
Many have asked me what inspires my writing. I’m quite prolific, on average writing 1500 words per day, everyday. Where is all that inspiration coming from? It’s been a long process to become so organised and prolific, but I have to boil down the reasons I get inspired into two main things. Reading: Now, IContinue reading “The Things That Inspire”
More Map Fun
After yesterday’s rather serious post, I decided to share all the lovely maps and inspiration I’ve used for my world within the pages of “Immortal Whispers”. Enjoy. This first map is the Kingdom where the majority of the story takes place, Suvanwold. It’s not 100% where I wanted things, and as the story progressed, someContinue reading “More Map Fun”
The Lands of the Eleven Kingdoms
Every fantasy novels needs a map (or three…or ten). I mean, how else would you know where the dragons lived? Because as readers, that’s darn important information. The world I’ve created for my novel “Immortal Whispers” is known as Landmere. The particular section of Landmere where things take place is Suvanwold (just above the middleContinue reading “The Lands of the Eleven Kingdoms”
The Lockdown Muse
Times have been tough, there’s no doubt about it. I’ve struggled with many things since the pandemic began in March (where I live). The most devastating was not being able to see my family, friends, and clients. My mental health suffered a lot. I spiralled. Not into depression, but I was in a dark placeContinue reading “The Lockdown Muse”
