Over the holidays, I took my markers away with me and had the chance to spend a rather idyllic week doing not much other than napping, swimming in the pool, writing and drawing. It was an amazing reset, and I’m terribly grateful for the ability to have that time away from my house, especially with […]

Found this in my meanderings earlier in the week, and it was hyper-relevant, since I found it while spending an hour procrastinating for diving into some revisions I’m supposed to be doing :’D Worth watching to the end. I’ve actually blogged about the photography story he mentions before, only I’ve heard the story with an

So I found out yesterday that How Not To Acquire A Castle has been shortlisted for the ACT Publishing Awards for 2020 for Best Fiction? How exciting!! Apparently I only have until Friday to wait for the results, so that’s also much excite. In other things-which-are-exciting, I think I neglected to mention here that I

Ermagersh. I had Tuesday off work for a family funeral (anticipated, though still sad), and spent all day yesterday thinking it was Thursday for reasons undiscernible. Further compounding my confusion is that it’s spring break here in Aus next week for two weeks, and there’s a long weekend for the non-school folk in the middle,

Short version: lots of publishing, no writing. I’ve been eating too much sugar lately, which negatively impacts my sleep, and I really need to kick that to the curb again. However, that involves willpower which involved energy which I’m lacking because of poor sleep, and you see how things are 😀 Also, discovered the hard
I’ve been doing quite a bit of drawing for the Inklets recently, and it’s lots of fun. I’m okay with black and white drawings – this was always my strength in art at school, too – but colour? That’s another story. But then I had this idea as I was falling asleep the other night
