I am championing myself. I have a book fair at the end of the month and I am also giving a talk! Yes, I'm petrified. I'm doing the talk on my coping strategies about the dyslexia. How I write, what I write and just how I have been effected by the dyslexia. I was told I… Continue reading Champion (Llandeilo Lit Fest)

Anything about the Masters in Creative Writing and Scriptwriting
Territory
I am expanding the businesses borders.... I know have an Etsy shop! And I am aware that the link is tenuous but I thought it had to be done. And I have just spent 6 hours setting it up so I want to sing about it from the rafters! I have copies of the signed… Continue reading Territory
Symptom
I guess lately I have been feeling a little depressed. Really this is just a symptom of what has been going on in my life. Last year ended on a low. Mind you I have yet to find someone who loved 2016... Mine was tough and every now and then I get a little down.… Continue reading Symptom
Instinct
Do you rely on them? I have in the past. I've even lost friends over them when my instinct has come so close to truth that they have become frightened I was some kind of psychic... I'm not. I just rely on instinct. If someone has been angry all week and you have a meeting… Continue reading Instinct
Nervous
I get nervous all the time. It happens as I sit in my workshop or out when I'm walking, shopping or being with friends. Don't get me wrong there is nothing that has changed except I have friends. Five years ago I would have been hard pushed to name five, now they are everywhere and… Continue reading Nervous
World Book Day
It was yesterday. And I got a post to my Facebook page that made me smile... Kate, I thought you might like to know that my son has gone to school as Jimmy (in dragon facepaint!) from 'Here Be Dragons'. He also wants to know if there's going to be a sequel?!#WorldBookDay In fact, it… Continue reading World Book Day
Centre
Find your centre... That is the best advice I have ever been given. Find that place where you are you and relax into it. The first time I tried I laughed. Where I'm me? But I'm always me... It made no sense. I get frustrated at language and not being able to put the words… Continue reading Centre
Glitter
I actually have some... I don't know why but in my bag is a tub of green glitter. Thinking about it I went as a witch to the last Halloween. I think it may be a lost soul from that. Oddly though I didn't use any. So it just sits. Wasted. Sometimes I wonder if… Continue reading Glitter
Blur
I wear glasses, a lot... In truth all the time. I am particularly blind without them. If you know about eyes then I have astigmatism, a squint and myopia. If you don't know eyes then I have nearsightedness, I can't see horizontal or vertical and if I get tired my right eye can look at… Continue reading Blur
Juicy
I'm getting to that bit in the novel where the action is about to pick up. I'm finding that I'm writing faster and faster, trying to finish. I need to know as much as you what my characters are going to do. Sure, I plan, but the plans are never complete. There is always room… Continue reading Juicy
