Finishing the series: I’m sure I’ve written about this before, but given it’s the 1st May, and it’s Insecure Writers Support Group, and I’ve just got back from Camp NaNoWriMo, I thought I’d take it as my subject. I didn’t
Zephyrs and other Winds brings you a charming insight into daily life at Castle Marsh. That’s the life of my Princelings of the East. This year I’ve been giving you flashbacks from my previous seven A to Z Challenges, to
‘eXactly’ replaces the post I’d already done for this year’s X of the AtoZ Challenge. In fact, I’d replaced it last year, too. Maybe it will finally surface in 2020. Since that was also an eX cheat (as was last
Victor. I meant to use the post I did for the NATO Alphabet in 2014, but it was an excerpt about the storm in his book, Bravo Victor, where he hides under his bed. I’m sure I’ve used that recently,
Updating my biography – probably the first time I’d done it since I started blogging in 2011. My theme for 2019, in keeping with the A to Z’s tenth anniversary, is flashbacks. I’m posting from the seven previous A to
Turgonia was the place I chose to feature for the letter T of my world-building themed A to Z in 2016. This year I’m doing flashbacks from the seven challenges I’ve undertaken. The A to Z Challenge is celebrating its
Heiða is my book for R for Review, which is my regular Saturday topic. I’m breaking out of my A to Z Challenge Flashbacks to bring you a review of a fascinating book published on Thursday (18th April). Thank you,
Manufacturing was an aspect of the Princelings world I hadn’t really thought through when I first wrote the books. During 2012 I did the A to Z of the Princelings World for my first #AtoZChallenge. This year my theme is
Lyrids are a meteor shower that seems to come from the area of the sky with the constellation of Lyra behind them. They’re photobombing Lyra, if you like! This post comes from April 2015’s A to Z Challenge. My theme
Kevin and Percy did the A to Z Challenge in 2017, as had Victor and Dylan before them. They used to run the George’s Guinea Pig World website, now it’s under Roscoe and Bertie’s control. They are doing the AtoZ
Humphrey Goes East is a 1000 word flash fiction I included in the A to Z Challenge 2013. To celebrate the A2Z team’s tenth anniversary, I’m blogging from my previous seven April Challenges. This is the first from 2013, when
G’Nauss is a planet in my Viridian System series world. In 2016 I took world-building as my theme for the A2Z. This year I’m celebrating the tenth anniversary of the A to Z Challenge by featuring posts from my previous
Flying seemed like a good post for the letter F. It’s a theme that goes through a lot of my work, since I’ve been interested in it since I was very small, largely because my father worked for Imperial Airways
Eclipse is a post from 2015’s A to Z Challenge. It led my theme choice for that year’s A to Z Challenge, which became ‘natural phenomena’. That was relevant to my normal blogging: the environment and science bit is sometimes
