This weekend I have many goals to accomplish:
I want to be a weekend warrior – to achieve all these and have time for my partner is my definition of a productive two days.
It’s that time of the week – Discussion Tuesday.
From those who are new, each week I post a topic (relevant to my WIP) and try to unravel the mysteries and perspectives of it.
Last weeks topic was Information Dumps, it wasn’t as engaging as the week prior (Profanity in novels) nevertheless it still attracted some engagement. But if you did missed out you can contribute on the link above.
For now, this week’s topic is:
Dialogue
55 hours. 500 words. 500 dollars. Different prompts each month.
Once a month I participate in this competition, it’s free and fun. There has been two competitions, the second finishing yesterday.

National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) April 2018 is here!
For those who are unaware of this concept,
Camp NaNoWriMo is a virtual writer’s retreat, designed for maximum flexibility and creativity. (more…)
It is that time of the week. Thoughts, ideas and questions are exchanged from blogger to author; writer to reader and vise versa.
If you missed last weeks discussion about author collaboration, it’s never too late. Whereas this weeks discussion is revolved around prophecies in a novel.
What are you thoughts on Prophecies?
Last #fridayreads I finished the second installment to Ian Irvine’s The View from the Mirror series ‘The Tower on the Rift’.
I will be reading books three and four, but not yet instead I moved onto a collections of fantasy short stories, the ‘Basilisk’. The thing I love about a collection of short stories is you can read a short story once a week or month, in no chronological order. However, I have not finished all the short stories but I moved onto a series I have been dying to read, before I finish Ian Irvine’s, is
Martin Middleton’s Chronicles of the Custodians series.
#Fantasyfriday is here.
‘The “Burimen Brothers” is an on-going Fantasy story that I will be writing on my blog. It was going to be my first novel but I thought I would express it to my followers.
IBurimen Brothers is story I begun on my blog last year. I have published seven installments (below) and I will continue it.
I finally finished the second installment for the View from the Mirror Quartet.
Pros and Cons to my book review for this book.
Short Story Sunday.
This will be the third week of this weekly ritual. I hope some people are starting to enjoy the process as much as I am. However, I would like more engagement by other bloggers/ authors or writers. My answer to this is time-frames and deadlines. For those who sign-up to my email listing below, I will send the reminders.
