Finished!!! Not Finished :(

Monday, November 10th, 2014

It was a close run thing but yesterday I managed to complete NaNoWriMo with the help of a write-in in Bristol. 11K is my new daily writing max and I managed that twice, finishing Nano in just over a week is also a personal best and I am very very chuffed. How ever this kind […]

Today I Hope Will Be The Day

Sunday, November 9th, 2014

It has just gone midnight here and I have 40, 000 words, last weekend with the aid of a write in I managed 11, 000 words in a day – a personal best. If I manage that again I will finish NaNo today. I am more than excited 🙂 I also donated so for the […]

Home Made

Saturday, November 8th, 2014

Bio hacking had been a thing for maybe 30 years, he’d mixed it in with the 3D printing tech he had. He had read about wetware and prosthetics and he had started the project. It wouldn’t be her, it never could be her. He had her hair, had gotten hold of an old blood sample […]

Carved Ice

Friday, November 7th, 2014

The anomalies were getting clearer as the ice melted, but it was also making Amy’s job harder. The ice was becoming dangerous, and the tunnelling could now end up causing the whole area to collapse. She locked her jaw in frustration at the thought of politicians arguing for nearly a century about such an obvious […]

The Dark Wind

Thursday, November 6th, 2014

The dark wind was blowing in from the North, it was thick with ice crystals and death. There was no where to go, the pyramid was all they had and the wind was already howling around it’s sides. “Quick inside!” Aten ordered pointing with webbed fingers, Eiru related the command and the stockier land apes […]

The Big Bang – Nano update

Wednesday, November 5th, 2014

Here in the UK it is the 5th of November and Fireworks Night – having an ancestor who was involved and coughs foiled the plot has always added an extra dimension to this part of the year. There are family legends and the such like. But back to the writing – this year Nano has […]

Half Way there Already!

Tuesday, November 4th, 2014

So it is day four and somehow I have hit half way – I am writing far faster than I have in previous years, of course a huge chunk of that writing is flash fictions instead of the novel. I think that might be what is helping the word count zoom. 🙂 Basically just wanted […]

The Forever Dreams

Monday, November 3rd, 2014

The dead were not supposed to dream, though in truth they were not dead but held indefinitely at the defining line between the here and the gone. The bodies were stacked in pods or glass coffins with knobs and dials and the controls of all sorts. They fitted into little nested holes in the walls […]

Issues with Reality

Sunday, November 2nd, 2014

I have an issue with the Punk’s Universe that I am creating stories in for NaNoWriMo and it is to do with reality. So last years was based on a series that is going to end in plague and stuff but I have kind of put off finishing that section due to the Ebola stuff […]

And So It Begins

Saturday, November 1st, 2014

It is that time of year again – the point at which I loose social media followers in droves and send my family a little insane – it is National Novel Writing Month. I started writing at midnight and though I posted on FB and Twitter about it I did not allow myself to blog […]
