Question Time!

Do you like to see behind the scenes of a #writer‘s desk? I know some don’t wanna see how the fiction they enjoy is created. But, to me, it’s fun to show the world just what goes into writing a #bookseries while juggling a full-time job. Today, I’m at one of the upstairs computers – … Read more

What’s happening at the #writing desk today?

Well, there’s the usual work of my full-time job (and that’s WFH, so that’s good!). I’ve further marketing to do on RISE OF ONE’s launch (15th Dec! 😍), and some edits I want to keep poking at on my #scifi #shortstory, QUENCH DEFIANCE… …but I also have a medical appointment to attend today. In the … Read more

The Instant ‘No’!

Something I see more and more as I waddle along this #indiepublishing journey is the instant reaction from other writers, other creatives, at the mere suggestion of trying something different, of changing their perspective, of implementing an easy improvement for huge gains and rewards. “Embracing social media is good for a writer and could-?” NOPE … Read more

The Writing Process…

Process, as a writer, is a tough nut to crack. Being an author is not a career with a clear path. You can go to college to get a Masters in Creative Writing, but even that still won’t make you an author. I think that finding your own process, figuring out what works for you, … Read more

Why Bother Writing?

A tough day to think about the future… And it’s hard to be creative everyday, to write and plan out a whole book series, and publish it myself (under my own imprint, Thunderloft Press). I’m often asked, how I keep going? How do I stay the course, even when things look so bleak? The answer … Read more

Today’s Writing Workspace

My workspace tends to change about the house, depending what I’m working on or what part of the writing process is on the cards. Right now, I’m launching the first BLOOD BRUTE book, RISE OF ONE, hence the big A3 notebook for my marketing calendar leading up to the 15th Dec launch. I’m also outlining … Read more

What I’m Thankful For…

Being Irish is something that I’m hugely thankful for. Not just for the basic stuff, like the country’s stability that’s such a contrast to the US and UK on either side of us, but Ireland’s literary history & strong writing tradition has definitely influenced & helped me get to where I am today. And I’m … Read more
