Happy New Year 2015

It is a New Year, all bright and shiny and full of potential – as always I am shaking up my writing and creative routines which I need to do to keep them fresh and productive 🙂

First off this year maybe quiet laid back or it could be exciting, there are several things both personal and writing wise that are up in the air at the moment so I am going to be mostly going with the flow but that doesn’t mean there can’t be a wish list of writing type things to be done!

So first off there is there is the Poetry By Heart event at the end of January which I am helping to organise at the Gloucester Guild Hall, then there is World Poetry Writing Month in February which I help organise, this year there is also the True Believers Comic Festival where I will be show casing my stuff including the first part of my comic book series, I hope to be going to a couple of conventions (scifi and fantasy mostly), then I have the Cheltenham Poetry Festival and various other events.

I want to take part in script frenzy and National Poetry Writing Month in April and National Picture Book Writing Week in May and Camp Nano in June and have a month of Flash Fiction writing somewhere in there (told you I am obsessed with writing challenges!). But as always this depends on what projects come up!

I also want to sort out a proper portfolio of all the workshops I offer, the Muse Monsters were most popular at the Literature Festival in the autumn. And then there is Cuddly Science and the how-to factual writing so it’s going to be busy busy.

But I am kicking off 2015 in the same way I have kicked off the last few years and that is by taking part in the Australian based Month of Poetry 🙂

I actually started this at midnight! So I am designating a min. of 30 hours this month to Poetry, I tend to post the poetry stuff on Turquoise Monster though ones that have a strong narrative element I do pop on here as well.

There is also Orange Monster for more of my illustrations and artworks. And I now have a mailing list – news letter thingy if you want to keep up with all the goings on weather they be fiction, craft, poetry, song or science which you can sign up to here.

I also have a Facebook page, twitters are Saffy and TheMonsterBlogs. I’m on Google Plus, LinkedIn and Pinterest too if you can be bothered to look me up 🙂
