This years NaNo is based in the Punk’s Universe (as they all have been!) and the initial idea for it occured on a long drive to Bristol but was a construct from a dream I had had. Then I had another dream about six weeks ago and it fitted perfectly though based a few more […]
As GothNoWriMo screeches to an end, I realise I have triumphed and failed – I did not make the sort of word counts I have made in the past but I have got 30 K sitting there awaiting editing 🙂 The story itself now has a proper shape and an idea of where it is […]
So normally I get Jelly Belly jelly beans (except when I was pregnant and nano-ing!) but I have found out that the boss of the company is homo and trans phobic 🙁 And puts vast amounts of his profits into what are essential hate campaigns. This means I will not be getting any for my […]
This year I am not actually sure how I am going to find time to write my novel O.o for a start I am now at college albeit part time, I still have a hell of a lot to do and a big chunk of it is science writing which may well take up my […]
I am tidying the attic at the moment – we moved way more than a year ago and it still isn’t really usable properly as a studio so I am using nanowrimo as an reason to sort it out. I have lots of pictures and postcards and things that I have collected which I am […]

I love my writing challenges and so will be continuing with them this year though how it will go with a new born I’m not sure! The next one in February which is WoPoWriMo – this is obviously poetry and so nothing to do with The Punk except last year I found myself writing poetry […]
Well the novel is not finished – suprise suprise! Never mind I have until November! I am determined to start a new novel for the next nano though as it will be a Punk novel it probably doesn’t really make much difference! Anyway I hope you all had a good Christmas and I’ll see you […]
