• My Week In Writing

  I’ve had a much calmer week this week. I managed to finish two out of three manuscript reviews with one more to tackle this week. All my other projects are up to date and awaiting client feedback. It was a much needed calmer week, although it doesn’t mean the lull will last. The next wave […]

• Single Mum Hacks

  I want to preface this post by saying that I am far from the most amazing parent of all time. I struggle, daily. Most nights I go to bed wishing I had done things differently, wishing I could grow another pair of arms to juggle all the responsibility of it. That being said, some nights […]

• NaNoWriMo!

  Happy National Novel Writing Month! I’m a tad late, but if you’ve started this challenge today I am here to cheer you on! I was on the fence last week but I’ve decided not to take part this year simply because of how busy I am with work and children. Committing to writing three pages […]

• The Contradiction of Parenthood

  The day begins with me doing a ninja crawl out of bed through a sea of limbs. I have to peel children off me as gently as I can in the attempt not to disturb them, which would kill my hopes of a quiet shower. As I shuffle to the bathroom I mutter almost incoherently […]

• Writing Tips From An Editor #6

  

  This week I’m going to list some short, snappy tips for self editing your work. It’s not always feasible to pay an editor to do all the hard work, there is a lot you can do yourself before you pay out for someone else to look over it! I hope that this has been helpful. […]

• Trying Not To Be Chair Shaped #9

  A very upsetting story saved me from my donut cravings this week. I found myself sitting outside a local coffee shop in the peaceful autumn sun, one hand wrapped around my hot drink, feeling quite content and contemplating a fresh pastry of some kind from the shop.
