We often think of writing as a solo activity, but idea jamming with my writing group friends really helped to blow out the cobwebs and open up the old synapses. I strongly recommend finding yourself a writing buddy to share your journey with. #WriteSky #WriteLife

Well into the world-building zone tonight! I can visualise my entire realm, but it seems I can't name anything 😅 How do we go about naming our settlements and fantasy races, folks? #WriteLife #WriteSky

A night at the theatre with Michael Sheen and the cast of #OurTown has had a rejuvenating effect. It’s a wonderful show and given me a great many things to think about. Congratulations @welshnattheatre.bsky.social

Took myself out on a little artists date to Swansea beach to refill that creative well. Feeling ready for a warm cuppa and an hour alone with my laptop. #writelife #artistsdate

It’s been slow going this month but I did some serious world building today! A little relieved that the post Christmas fog is beginning to lift. #WriteLife #MyWorld

Koya is an Ursa Nomad from the Great Redwood Groves. Why, when he has tried so hard to run from his destiny, has he walked right into the jaws on fate?

Resting is part of the creative process. It is important to take time away from the keyboard, wander in the fresh air, and let the beauty of the world refill your creative wells.

Me: What if I were to do some writing now?
Ben: What if I were to nap on your laptop first?

FYI: Ben is a cat.

I’m starting the year with the best of intentions. I’ve been toiling in the fanfiction mines for as long as I can remember, but this is the year that I get serious.
