Epilepsy will always be a thorn in mine and my families life and despite how unfortunately common it is, I do not feel like it gets enough exposure/ focus on the effects it can cause.
So, I am doing 3 walks for charity in September and any exposure would be a godsend.

Currently going over my first draft of my new philosophical fiction and decided to release the first chapter online for people's opinions. So, please take a moment to read and let me know your honest thoughts as this is a far cry from the high fantasy I normally write.

So, I have finished my draft, refined it as much as I think I can..... now what the hell do I do 😂😂. Some say approach an editor, some say go for publishers who have inhouse editors, some say get alpha readers first and some say self-publish is the way forward... I am at a loss haha.

I have written a turning point for the mentality of my main character. I do like to waffle on though so I want to see if this actually makes sense to other people 😂.

If I don't get books like this for Christmas, then I am not interested 🤣. Talk about a unique take on dragons.

Each year, our boss gets us an advent calender. I got two 😁. A calender full of luxurious liquorice and the worlds most offensive calender 🤣.

Finally managed to get a book cover sorted out. What are your opinions? Too plain, too much, or does it just not work? Book is set in a dark fantasy world, with a few fantasy elements but nothing major till the final war at the end.

Does anyone else feel that Facebook is just as bad as Twitter these days? I feel like it's troll central at the moment, even in writing groups.

Trying to tidy up my draft and already my prologue is looking a lot darker than what I was initially going for. Lets see how this pans out. Feel free to read and be brutally honest with your opinions and any changes that need to be made as this is just a draft.
