So I’ve returned from my first trip to Melbourne, the capital of Victoria. What was initially a trip to attend the Continuum 7 convention turned out to be much more…a bit of a magical history tour. Of course I didn’t just want to spend the whole five days attending the convention, I wanted to seeContinue reading “Victorian Times”

SO I haven’t posted a blog for a while … I’ve been neglectful, but with good reason. Drawing, and not writing is taking up most of my time (outside my full-time job and parenthood). The graphic novel, Witches! penned by Rocky Wood and Lisa Morton is progressing well, with dozens of pages and a coverContinue reading “A long time between posts…”

So Naomi Clark, author of Demonized and Afterlife were trying to find a new way to promote ourselves on our respective blogs and we came up with something that was a lot of fun to do! We decided to do interviews of our main characters, but then realised that it just wouldn’t work. Instead weContinue reading “Character studies can be fun!”

Torment is now available in paperback and e-book editions from Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Some encouraging peer reviews are coming in which is great, but there’s still more promotion to do which is why I’ve been doing the rounds on other authors blogs. Mostly I discuss Torment, but I also reveal how I gotContinue reading “Torment on tour”

The blog tours continue…this time with fellow Damnation Books scribe Su Halfwerk who released her collection Intricate Entanglement on March 1. Take it away Su: Why Write About Them?
