The world from my little corner
Just over two weeks after the completion of Chapter 11, Chapter 12 is now done! I seem to be back on track with The Body in the Building and things are progressing well. Chapter 12 was when the action really started to fire up. Nat’s life has gone from being in possible danger to very…
Read the story! While I have published a couple of books, and am working on my third book via my #TwitterFiction project, most people who know me also know that I am a massive science fiction fan, in particular, Star Wars and Star Trek. I am very much enjoying writing “The Body in the Building”…
Anyone who has followed me over the past year would be aware of my Twitter Fiction project. No doubt, they would have seen me charge ahead for a couple of months, then get more sketchy with my writing, before finally grinding to a halt some five months ago. As in my recent post, I’ve climbed…
I’d like to say that I have had important reasons for not writing much in the past few months. I could say that I got busy with training for my 2nd Dan black belt in Taekwondo. I could shuffle my feet and say that I got busy with work and some software development projects. While…
I can’t believe that a year has gone by since I released my very first book, “The Map in the Fortune Cookie!” For as long as I remember, I always wanted to write. I never thought I could, so I never did. But one day, about eighteen months ago, I decided that I would try.…
I can safely say that the last few weeks haven’t been my best for consistency. I went through a period of writer’s block, then a week of frenetic activity.

Wow, what a difference between this week and last week! Last week I was stuck in a bout of writer’s block, when I was completely stuck in situ, wrestling with a plot point of the story. This week, I have charged ahead and completed three whole chapters. You read that correctly; THREE WHOLE CHAPTERS! “The…
This last week has been an interesting one with my #TwitterFiction project and in some ways a challenging one. For the first time since I started working on it, I found myself stuck. It wasn’t that I didn’t know what to write, it was more of a case that I wasn’t sure how to write…
Thanks to school holidays and a healthy dose of busy, this week’s update is later than intended, but as they say in the classics, better late than never! Last week, we finished Chapter 5 of our story and headed into Chapter 6. We ticked over 9,000 words so far and we are starting to get…
It’s nearly a month now since I started the #TwitterFiction project, writing a story on Twitter one tweet at a time. I am very pleased to say that it’s going very well. Chapter 4 was finished earlier in the week, and we are right into the meat of the story now. I am very glad…
