There’s a particular clip from the 2005 adaptation of Pride and Prejudice that I’ve always found strangely poignant and timeless. It’s also one I think is utterly stone-dead hilarious, and frankly, I’ve been awaiting the day I can share it with baited breath. I’ve been away from this blog for longer than anticipated, though for […]
Salvete, amici. This weekend I hit a rather special milestone on my wordcount, after a handful of weeks of thwarted but still decent progress. A big moment, fo sho. I’m not quite as jubilant as I ought to be, as while this speed of progress is good, I’ve felt the plot has dragged a little […]
Shadow is going quite well, recently. Suspiciously well, you might say. I’m closer to the end of Part II then the start of it, and Part II was probably the section I thought would be hardest to write. If anything, it’s the most straightforward part of the novel in terms of plot – the Argo […]
Hello all. Just a very brief post to kick off February with. Now the dust is settling on my Moan Inc. interview (which I hope you all enjoyed as much as I did), I have one other little announcement that almost slipped beneath the radar. My award-winning short story, Ode to an Odyssey, that won […]
This afternoon I happened to hop on YouTube – as I often do, most days – and scrolling through my feed of subscribed channels and suggested videos, I came across a rather familiar thumbnail. Intrigued, I clicked through. And then peered a little closer. Shit, I thought. I know that guy. I can now confirm […]
My first post of 2023. Morning, folks. Hope your Christmas and end of year was all you wanted it to be. I have a fairly good track record for missing milestones on this blog (I think I’m about five for five, if we’re counting), but I think we passed this particular one not long after […]
Pahaha. As if I look at any of my life in retrospect. I’ve seen my fair share of retrospective and Top Ten Pics post from people sharing their 2022 highlights, and I’m not necessarily going to lean into that here, but I haven’t posted this since November and today felt like the opportune day for […]
Wow, look at that. Two posts in one weekend. I’ve been sitting on this for a few weeks now without telling people, but now it’s finally here I’m excited to spill. Remember Ode to an Odyssey? That story I wrote about Odysseus being a mopey bastard after the Fall of Troy, which won a commendation […]
After a few fairly constant blogposts, I may have had some of you worried. But rest assured, I am back once again with my sporadic, barely-once-a-month content. A return to form, indeed. A little writing update is probably in order, then. After a fair few weeks of knocking my head against the wall with Shadow, […]
Another blogpost, another inexplicable gap in my life to account for. Once more, quite a bit more time elapsed this time round than I hoped for, and this time I don’t have a great deal to say for the (unexpectedly long) absence. I wasn’t really up to a great deal besides working and squeezing in […]
