In lieu of our usual Friday video, today I present to you ‘Which Book?‘, a fantastic and intriguing website that allows you to plug in a number of factors about books you like, and then generates a suggested reading list based thereon. Factors include the obvious such as a happy book or a sad one, […]

Forgot to mention it last week, but the 23rd has been and gone and passed us by, which means another short story is up on my Patreon page 🙂 This may or may not be directly relevant to #FoxBook, which I am currently working on… O:) On my Patreon page, you can also join the

Since this is apparently the week of sharing stumbles, I stumbled across this online the other day too and it’s kind of fun: The Plot Dot, a resource by bestselling YA author Derek Murphy. This is the full copy of his book on slideshare (not pirated – he put it there and links to it

Randomly came across this the other day – a collection of perfume companies making book-related perfumes! When I say book related, I don’t just mean, like, character themed or whatnot.

Go read this great post by Ilona Andrews. It’s called Lazy Sunday, and it’s nothing especially deep and meaningful, except that on the other hand it also kind of is. See, when you’re working hard at achieving your dreams, you have to shoehorn them into any spare time you have, learning to make do on

I needed this reminder. It’s been seven or so months since I worked on a novel, and restarting after so long is pants-wettingly terrifying. What if I’ve forgotten how to do it? What if it’s all crap? Why am I doing this anyway when I already have a full-time job and more items on my

Yep, mining Camporee again because the last two weeks have been flat-out orienting at my new job 🙂 This is a cityscape I made as the backdrop for the 10-min intro drama. Took probably about an hour and a half, I think (I did know but yeah, time, blur, woo!) and a full brand new
