    Witness Me

    I’m hoping to write at least 2000 words today (because this chapter of the Riven Crown is one I’ve had in mind for ages and is pretty much the build up for a bit of gratuitous almost-bed -haring. Not even remotely sorry.) Also I think we’re reached that m...

    Writing Is Hard

    Honestly, it really, really is. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either lying, or is possibly in that happy place of creative flow. That place where the words just pour from you like blood from a wound. I'm not in that place. I'm never in that place any ...

    I hate the phrase "purple prose"

    I've always been a descriptive writer. When I was young I was told it was a strength so I played it up. As I got older I learnt the value of moderation and balance, but if there's one piece of concrit that's dogged my steps, it's that some people find my ...

    Update Schedule?

    Fellow fic writers, I'm curious, do you keep to an update schedule with your WiPs? I've been writing fanfiction for ages, and one of the most successful ways I've found of getting readers onboard for my longer, posted-a-chapter-at-a-time projects is to tr...

    Sunday Six? A Good Idea?

    Hi everyone! Over on Tumblr some people do a Sunday six. It's where you post six lines (or paragraphs if you'd rather) of what you're currently writing (your freshest, first, most damning draft!) It's been a great way to get me writing at least a little b...

    Can you remember your worst review? I know I can. It was on Gilded Cage, where someone really didn’t like anything about it and ended by saying I had no talent. It’s here if you want to take a look. I’ve received bad reviews before and I remember them all...
