My sister and I flew into LAX, spent a day at Universal Studios, and then flew to Colorado to spend a week there before… Continue reading Things you won’t find in Australia (Part One)
Have you ever sat in front of your computer and wondered why you bother? Maybe it’s just me, though I doubt it. You look at the books on your shelves, or think of the number of books releasing every year (spoiler: it’s a LOT), or read about a story about to release from a multi-published… Continue reading Is There Still Room for One?

I don’t know about the rest of you but life has seemed pretty overwhelming these past few years. My normal coping mechanisms have flown out the window with the pace of it all (and things well out of my control… here’s looking at you worldwide pandemic), and I’ve been left floundering. And where I’d normally… Continue reading I Have Heard Your Cry
Have a brilliant story idea and spend the next day/week/month madly scribbling down/plotting out what is easily going to be the next big bestseller. No, not just bestseller. This is going to be the book that changes the world. This is going to be EPIC. Open a new document on your computer. Stare at blank… Continue reading How to Write the Perfect Novel in 49 Easy Steps
