International Non-Binary People’s Day

I had another post planned, but then I saw it was International Non-Binary People’s Day and I let myself get distracted. If you’ve made it this far into my site (or have come from my Twitter feed) and don’t know everything I write is queerer than queer, this is your final wake up call. I’m… Continue reading International Non-Binary People’s Day

My ‘Why’

Ask anyone who attempts writing a book, and I mean seriously attempt it with re-writes and revisions and editing and marketing and all the nitty gritty bits that aren’t just putting words to page, and they will tell you this stuff is hard work. It’s not all day dreams and coffee shops, tippy tapping at… Continue reading My ‘Why’

Life of a Pantser

For those of you who don’t spend most of your free time talking about writing, or reading about writing (and sometimes even actually writing), a pantser is someone who flies, or writes, by the seat of their pants. I remember in high school needing to submit an essay plan along with my essays because our… Continue reading Life of a Pantser

And then time ticked from my well intentioned weekly updates to maybe every week and a half, no one will notice to every fortnight still… Continue reading Executive Dysfunction and Me

My Gangly Cat

Sorry if you were hoping my horrible cat metaphor wouldn’t pop up again, it’s all I’ve got at the moment. My current gangly cat is a tale of star crossed lovers; of natural enemies finding common ground; of very queer, very tired demons wanting nothing more than to be left alone. When I first had… Continue reading My Gangly Cat

Writing with Sound

As someone with ADHD I can’t stand silence. Or even just low background noise. I need something to focus on. Which is why I have about three million playlists. Before I start a new project, I create a playlist. It’s usually a mix of whatever artists and albums I’m currently obsessing over and things that… Continue reading Writing with Sound

Reality is Scary

I’m not a risk taker by any means. If anything, I’m a self proclaimed coward and proud of it. That’s probably why I spend so much time creating my own little worlds, because they’re risk free. Until they decide they need to come out and you somehow end up with a novel draft that is… Continue reading Reality is Scary
