Slight Failure and Procrastination

Wednesday, November 14th, 2018

To cut a long story short – I ended up with work work to do and kid stuff which ate my writing time in the first part of the month – I am hoping the second half is going to be better – so much for managing a one week victory 🙁 Also for the […]

Nano Begins!!! 2018

Thursday, November 1st, 2018

It is the first of November and I did not manage to stay away for midnight – I was just too tired – to be fair to me I had one full day off in October and I was working late nights so it was unsurprising. But I did wake up at 4:30 am and […]

As a warm up to the National Novel Writing Month – known affectionally as NaNo I shall be doing another of my little writing traditions – GothNoWriMo. This started out just being horror and gothic fiction but I have co-opted it as a lot of the Punk’s Universe is quiet dark. And of course the […]

It is novelling time again 🙂 I have my pumpkin spice and hot drinks on tap and am prioritising computer time as writing time 🙂 The word goals for GothNo are 30-70 k – I will be happy with 30 k – I desperately want to set myself the larger target but not sure I […]

GothNoWriMo 2017

Tuesday, September 26th, 2017

October approaches and that means it is time to start writing – I tend to start my serious novelling in October which gives me a nice warm up ready for NaNo itself. Of course being October and the month of Halloween I always feel I should write the darker parts of The Punk Story Lines. […]

Yep, I’m at it again – Camp NaNoWriMo is a month long writing drive that is a spin off of the main National Novel Writing Month. With camp you tend to choose your own word goals and things. I did the April one where I started working on Tides – which is my main focus […]
