Hi everyone! So I’ll start with my progress on Sword - my post apocalyptic katana wielding adventure story. It’s coming along nicely and is currently sitting at 40%. I love how it's going so far, my main character has two names, Nomad and Artos. He is an interesting character in this world and I’m looking forward to seeing where the story could go. I have the ending for the book and I’ve planned it as a standalone but it could stretch to other stories in the future, I’ll have

Hi everyone! So, I’m going to try and stick to some sort of release schedule. That means regular writing sessions and holding myself to account, and more book releases for you all to read.  Here goes. My aim is to attempt to write at least something everyday. (As of January the 1st I have.) Maybe a lot or just a few words but I need to get into a writing habit and this has worked for me before.  Then the release schedule.  I plan to finish Sword, my post apocalyptic katana wi

Hello and welcome back, I have a short writing update for you all.  I won’t talk about Shadows of Kankor’s release as I’ll keep that for another post.  Anyway, writing update: Sword - A Book of The Damned, my apocalyptic adventure story is all planned and I’m currently sitting at around 33% of the first draft. Sword will be a lot shorter that either of my BrightStone Saga books. With 31 chapters planned and being a third of the way through the word count is sitting at about 2

Hello everyone! It’s release day for Shadows of Kankor! I can’t believe it is finally time for me to release it into the world. It’s taken longer than I thought but I’m happy with how it’s turned out.  Here’s the blurb: An epic fantasy that explores a brand new world. But a world that is far older than anyone ever knew. - Shadows of Kankor: Book Two of The BrightStone Saga - In “Shadows of Kankor,” the realm of Kankor is engulfed in mayhem and devastation, thrusting our heroe

Hello everyone! It’s less than 2 weeks until Shadows of Kankor releases! I’ve been waiting a long time to release book 2 and I just hope it lives up to the first one. I’m really proud of it and I just hope you all enjoy it because some of it was definitely a slog to get down (I want to put a crying emoji here but thought better of it).  So, less than 2 weeks to go so you still have time to read book 1.  Book 1 is my baby, it took a long, long time to write and almost as long

Hello, So today I want to talk about something that I have realised recently. I have been rushing around doing multiple things, from promotions at work to football coaching, family life and of course writing.  I read something on Twitter (yes, I still call it that) about writing in general and who you are writing for. I realised that of course I am writing to tell other people my stories and I love when someone reads them and enjoys it, and sometimes doesn’t enjoy it but luck

Hello, I know it's been a while since I wrote my last post (almost a year ago!)  Anyway, I just wanted to write this post as an update to how I’m doing with my writing.  In my last post I was really excited to show off my new map showing the whole of Antar where my BrightStone Saga takes place. I managed to add that map to the prequel novella ‘Betrayal’ and it came out great! Now, what have I been up to you ask? Well, I have been busy writing book two in the series and it’s c
