What a couple of weeks! I knitted more than I ever knitted before to help out a colleague and also wrote a lot – both for work and pleasure. What I’ve been up to work-wise Since I last wrote, I finished the knitting ebook (which you get when you buy a set of children’s knittingContinue reading “Writing and Work Update, July and August 2020”

On Finding Time to Write, Compiling an Editorial Calendar, and Outlining a Series
I’ve also made an editorial calendar and actually wrote it on the wall calendar in order to follow it while also seeing the bigger picture…
Worldbuilding Airtha-Eyrassa: The Knowledge Stone, Part 1
I already had the idea of the Stone being covered in runes, but looking more like Mesopotamian tablets (think Sumerian and Babylonian); only bigger. Enter the Code of Hammurabi.
The History of Airtha-Eyrassa and Worldbuilding
I ended up going with a kind of “in the beginning there was nothing, which exploded” (thank you, Pratchett!) kind of creation story and then zoomed in on the planet/world of Airtha-Eyrassa.
End-of-March Writing Update: Ruon Chronicles, Ghost Stories, and Other Stuff
Okay… so that was March flitting by faster than a Will o’ the Wisp… To say that I didn’t do everything I wanted to this March (fiction writing wise) is an understatement. Well, okay, word count-wise it was a flop. Thinking about stories and outlining Stuff was much more productive. Turns out that I didContinue reading “End-of-March Writing Update: Ruon Chronicles, Ghost Stories, and Other Stuff”
Writing Plans for the Year 2019

Worldbuilding Wednesday – The World of Airtha-Eyrassa: The Knowledge Stones
Here is some information about the Knowledge Stones which come to play such an integral role in the Ruon Chronicles.
May Writing Update 2
Or, This is taking longer than expected Since the previous update I, on the one hand, don’t feel like I’ve written that much, but that is because I have mostly been outlining and going over timelines for specifically The Ruon Chronicles. The timeline for Porselein is still small enough for me to just have someContinue reading “May Writing Update 2”
May Writing Update – Fiction, Camp NaNoWriMo, and an Academic Paper
Can you believe we’re in the thick of autumn here in the southern hemisphere already? Although, I’m already working on July mags at work, so my mind is a bit split in two and apparently have decided that it’s June. (Mostly because I worked on weekly mags for 8 years and my brain seems aContinue reading “May Writing Update – Fiction, Camp NaNoWriMo, and an Academic Paper”
April Writing Update
Or, some days… the dragon wins. Sometimes it feels as if I am taking one step forward and two steps back when it comes to my writing. Not that I suddenly suck one day (I mean, obviously some stories don’t quite work, but I don’t mean that), but it’s like the month that there isContinue reading “April Writing Update”
