BAM! It’s What’s New Wednesday time! This week, the theme is “watch me prove you wrong”, which is totally my current mood. For me, the best motivator is when I’m being underestimated. I thrive when everyone (including myself) expects me to wither, because the doubt fuels me in ways I can’t completely explain. It’s weird….
Miss Me? Did you miss me? I mean, yeah, I know it’s not like I’ve been gone for years or anything, but I admit I’ve been a little on the quiet side lately. There are reasons, of course, and some of them are even good reasons. If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen…
While 2020 is still in its infancy, I thought I’d quickly give everyone the 411 on what I’m doing this year. I’m late with this post, which is why it’s no longer a “goal” list for me, but that’s mostly because I’m already swamped. In a good way, of course. I’m not complaining whatsoever. Still,…
It’s time for another edition of What’s New Wednesday, and this week I’ll be talking all about how we thrive in darkness. The “we” in this case are none other than South Africans, who’re experiencing (once again) government sanctioned blackouts (we call it Load Shedding), due to incompetence. Yup. That so happens. But to rub…
The title of this post was supposed to be “Working on my Shhh”, but I had no idea how to work that into the SEO, so I’m going with the mediocre “Busiest Time of the Year” title instead. Dull? Yes. Pragmatic? Maybe. Either way … *wave* … Hey! How’s it going? Miss me? 🙂 Sorry…
NaNoWriMo 2019 is fast-approaching, which means a whole lot of writers are going to do a whole lot of talking about their November writing goals … Some writers, however, will probably pull up their noses again, moan about how “real writers don’t write like that,” and blah-blah-blah. Luckily, I stopped caring about what others think a…
Here’s the thing about sequels: They’re difficult to write and even harder to write well. I don’t think I’ve ever met a writer who actually didn’t struggle with a sequel at some point in their career On April 1st, 2018, I began writing The Bone Carver, which is the sequel to The Night Weaver. Now,…
It’s time for another What’s New Wednesday post! I’m sure some of you’ve realized I’ve been M.I.A. for a couple of weeks or so … Well, just on my blog. Sometimes I tweeted a bit when I took a break. That being said, I had a very good reason why I went radio silent, which…
