Wow, I can’t believe it’s October already. I know I always say this, but the months are flying by. I feel like the last two weeks of September whizzed past in a blur. So, what happened during September? The first two weeks went well. While having my break…
In March this year, I decided to do a novella reading challenge, so I could learn how to write my own novella. For the novella challenge, I aimed to read seven novellas from a range of genres. Well, six months later, I have finally completed that challenge. So,…
On the 26th August 2017, we (the Oldbury Writing Group) went on the Birmingham Tolkien Trail (Moseley Bog, Sarehole Mill, and Shire Country Park) to celebrate our third birthday. Being a Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings fan, I couldn’t wait to go on this trip and see…

I cannot believe that it’s August already. I remember starting 2017 feeling determined to make this year the year I achieve a lot in my writing. Well, sadly, things haven’t gone to plan. Life has often gotten in the way of my writing, so I lack either time…
It’s July. Yes, you’ve read that right. Another month in 2017 has gone, and we can never get it back. The months are going by that quickly that they are starting to blur into one another. It doesn’t feel that long ago that I sat and prepared my…
On Thursday 15th June 2017, my Oldbury Writing Group posse and I went to the Black Country Radio Station to be interviewed by Billy Spakemon about our World War Two anthology titled From Sunrise to Sunset. Since this was my first time being interviewed on the radio, I…
