Is there such a thing? I think there might be. Feels like I've written an awful lot this week because I have. I'm tired. Rather, Brian brain is tired. I'm just kinda annoyed really. Can't really pin it on anything in particular - it's a culmination of lots of things. So many fucking things. Best … Continue reading Too much writing
Ellie Conway FBI-Byte Series

December started pretty quickly, don't you think? October was the slowest month on record and November flew by! I decided I want to finish the third novella in the Fates Entwined: Spellbound Bookshop Trilogy - this month. I had written one chapter prior to that decision.Why wouldn't I add more stress to December?2K a day … Continue reading December 2024
Ignore my browsing history.
I must admit my browsing history isn't what it used to be, for several reasons. The first is I use a VPN and The Onion if I need to access information that is a little bit dodge, and I've been doing that for a long time. The other reason - I have more people I … Continue reading Ignore my browsing history.
And we wait …
We've reached the part of the year where there is a lot of 'hurry up and wait' happening. Everything feels like it slows down as Christmas approaches. It doesn't and couriers are flat out despite that it seems to take forever to get parcels! So we wait. I'm waiting for two packages (Christmas decorations and … Continue reading And we wait …
You taught me why.
My first main character was pretty awesome. Not in the very beginning of her life, but as I grew into her and she grew into me. As she taught me to let go and trust that I knew how to do this, she became more like a person and less like a collection of words … Continue reading You taught me why.
Is it a milestone?
I've reached the age of having my glasses around my neck on a lovely beaded thingy. It's mostly to stop them flying off my face and getting kicked across the ground. They're expensive and I've already got two scuff marks on them. So, glasses keeper it is then. While I was at it, I got … Continue reading Is it a milestone?
There’s another weekend coming …
As long as that keeps happening, all is not lost. 🙂 I might get some writing in, I definitely will not be making lofty writing plans. Why would I? Really? I know this book is moving steadily. I know I'm on track for a June/July launch next year. As long as I keep going, it'll … Continue reading There’s another weekend coming …
Of course!
Seriously, don't know why it didn't immediately occur to me that someone was asking about Databyte when they asked about 'my book'. 🙂 Maybe because it was foremost in my mind in 2014 when it launched? Currently I'm writing the sixth book in a entirely different series set in the same universe (and it annoys … Continue reading Of course!
Digital marketers?
They seem to be the vacuum cleaner salesmen of the publishing industry. If you don't know what kind of person used to sell vacuum cleaners think car sales person on steroids. They play on insecurities and convince people they need whatever the fuck they are selling and generally whatever it is bears a hefty price … Continue reading Digital marketers?
To write or to have written.
I can tell you right now that my favourite state of being is having a finished first draft sitting there looking like a lump of shite, ready to be formed into a fully fledged story. The joy of knowing the hard part is done and the fun is still to come. I love that. I … Continue reading To write or to have written.
