I have been planning and plotting and looking back over some of my older writing especially that in the Punk’s Universe and I have realised that most of my protagonists fall into one if not all three categories of Monsters, Misfits and Maidens.

I have finally sorted out a home page for my creative writing – this is all the Monster Blogs plus Wiggly Pet and WoPoWriMo (World Poetry Writing Month). The URL is http://monsters.wigglypets.co.uk/.

When actually signing up on the NaNoWriMo site I had to really ponder what I was calling this project – the Maidens of the Wild, Wild Women, Women of the Wilds, Life and Death and Extremes, The Cradle and the Grave, The Cycle of Life, Cyclic Decay… and so on when I had a dream […]

In 2019 I will have been […]
I’ve been thinking that I should try out different drawing styles to design the look of my comic book. One of the things I wanted to try was the concept of scribble pictures – so I have been experimenting with this in my visual poetry journal. I am also using them as a good way […]
I tugged at my brain and made it write 1000 words of story today – it was however a struggle mainly due to small people keep reappearing from bed and the toddler getting a temperature :/ But I managed and now I am looking around my blogs and social media and noticing the pings of […]
