I have been putting off writing this blog post purely because I don't like to jump on band wagons. Now that the movie has been out for a few weeks I think it's safe to talk about without spoiling it for people! Not that I am going to write any spoilers anyway. I know there … Continue reading Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

NaNo Prep!!
Yes, it's almost that time of year. NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) takes place in November and for some reason I'm prepping like crazy for this one which I've never done before. I normally just make a story up on the day or a few days before and don't plan what is going to happen … Continue reading NaNo Prep!!
Honest Thoughts on Self Publishing
I'm sure by now you've noticed I self published my first book; Etta! I figured I'd do a little blog post just to talk about the experience and the reaction I got from it. I'm sure people are wondering how well it's done and if I've made any money (I don't think it's rude to … Continue reading Honest Thoughts on Self Publishing
I’m published!!
Well, almost... Today is the day I put the first of a series I am working on out into the world! It's currently sitting in Amazon's hands, being reviewed, until they decide to let it go free so people [like you] can download it. Naturally, I'm nervous. I enjoy the writing but the hardest part … Continue reading I’m published!!
Re-Reading books
I know I'm not alone in this but it always strikes me as odd when the majority of people I know say they don't do this... I am a serial re-reader. I keep ALL my books* so I have a library of my favourite stories to go back to. Like TV shows and movies I'll generally re-read … Continue reading Re-Reading books

Rat Queens Vol. 1 / Graphic Novel Review
Who are the Rat Queens? A pack of booze-guzzling, death-dealing battle maidens-for-hire, and they’re in the business of killing all god’s creatures for profit. It’s also a darkly comedic sass-and-sorcery series starring Hannah the Rockabilly Elven Mage, Violet the Hipster Dwarven Fighter, Dee the Atheist Human Cleric and Betty the Hippy Smidgen Thief. This modern … Continue reading Rat Queens Vol. 1 / Graphic Novel Review
Apps & comics
As you may be aware, I won an ipad mini the other day. Ever since I got it I've been trying to figure out what to do with it because I have a Chrome Book and a laptop already, plus a Samsung phone which is basically a mini computer so a tablet is a bit … Continue reading Apps & comics
Self Publishing
For a long time I had the mind-set that self publishing wasn't really what I'd consider 'published'. To be fair I still, in a way, think this. It's not that self publishing is a cop out or a sign that you're a bad writer, it's just that I strive to become published by a publishing house because … Continue reading Self Publishing
Hitting 100 and a book review
This is it, my 100th post, which is pretty good going. For me. Well, not really; I used to have a blog a millennium ago and I can't tell you how many posts I wrote but 100 is decent for this new decade of writing I find myself in. With self-congratulations out of the way … Continue reading Hitting 100 and a book review
