We're in the home stretch of the live release of The War of the Worlds in Real Time now. As June draws to a close, we see our characters coming to grips with red weed, strange cries, and perilous journeys. If you haven't followed along via Twitter to read things sequentially, then head along to … Continue reading The War of the Worlds in Real Time #12

When You Have to Rearrange Your Story
I've been writing the second part of a fantasy trilogy. None of it's published at this point, but for the last few weeks it's been hard going. Partly because during the whole Christmas and New Year period there's been an awful lot of stuff going on, and partly because although I know exactly where this … Continue reading When You Have to Rearrange Your Story
Writing New Things
For some years, I've been writing the Frontier Trilogy. By writing, I mean first, second, third draft, submission, acceptance, editing, editing, editing (I could keep typing that one), and then proofreading it. Now that the series is complete and has been released, it all feels a bit weird. It's not like I haven't been writing … Continue reading Writing New Things
Much Writing
It's a bit late to do the 'New Year' post, I suppose. The only excuse I have is that it's been quite a busy end to 2015 and hasn't really slowed down yet. Hopefully that's about to change 🙂 Anyway, writing wise, I've been flat out. I had an idea for a new YA fantasy … Continue reading Much Writing
The New Star Wars Movie
I'm really looking forward to seeing the new Star Wars Movie. I was twelve when the first Star Wars movie was released. I remember going to the theatre with my brother, who was seven at the time, and being astounded by the special effects, and the sheer hugeness of what I was seeing on the … Continue reading The New Star Wars Movie
NSW Writers Centre Speculative Fiction Festival
I headed off to the NSW Writers Centre Speculative Fiction Festival yesterday. It was a chilly morning when we left the Upper Hunter at around 5am, but we made good time, and arrived just before the registration time of 9am. It's always a bit of a guessing game travelling to Sydney from here. On a … Continue reading NSW Writers Centre Speculative Fiction Festival
Swancon and the #c1blitz!
I've had a flat out week. It's been a real doozy. I went over to Swancon last week, and participated as a panellist and the paperback version of Frontier Resistance was officially released as well, and then this weekend has been the critique and winner reveals of Freshly Squeezed Reads #c1blitz. Swancon was great. I … Continue reading Swancon and the #c1blitz!
What a Busy Blog Touring Week!
The first week of my blog tour is now over. There have been interviews and spotlights, and I've been writing frantically to make sure I'm organised for this week's events. Many thanks to all the bloggers involved, and especially from Roxanne Rhoads from Bewitching Book Tours. This week I'll be at: November 10 Guest blog … Continue reading What a Busy Blog Touring Week!
What a Weekend! (And it’s still not quite over…)
Well, Frontier Resistance is now officially launched. Friday night, at the opening function of the Scone Literary Long Weekend, I had the lovely opportunity to speak in front of nearly 100 people about eBooks, and how a brand new eBook is published, and then read from the first chapter of Resistance to officially launch the … Continue reading What a Weekend! (And it’s still not quite over…)
