Working on two novels at at the moment, with a third out with publishers via my agent. One of the WIPs is epic fantasy, the other my first LitRPG effort. #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #author #authorlife #authorscommunity #writercommunity

Traveller tip: don’t be a rude fuckwit. Particularly to those in hospitality and other service industries.

Courtesy costs you nothing and the rewards can be manifest.

[Mark T Barnes @MarkTBarnes]

I enjoy how much characters and story can change and grow in the editing process. Never say no to a more fitting idea. #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #authorlife #authorcommunity #writercommunity

Getting my writing fitness back. It’s been progress for the past few weeks, adding more each day, until I’m doing a chapter each day now at roughly 2.5K to 3K good words. #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #authorcommunity #WritersComminuty #Novel #author
