Give me a 3-word summary of what you will be doing, writing-wise, in the coming year.
Pivoting my focus.
Tell me more:
For years I’ve been a writer of novels which needed a
great amount of research and planning. While they’ve brought me much
satisfaction, they are definitely a long haul job.
By chance I came upon novellas, dipping my toe into the
Chiller genre with Scent of the Böggel-Mann and The Paintings, and
found the length better suits the demands of my current lifestyle. I’ve
a couple of Historical novellas to finish, and I’m looking for a subject and
genre I’d enjoy carrying into a series.
I’m also concentrating more time on content-writing for
Medium, a digital platform which hosts a multitude of niche publications. The
aim is to launch a couple of my own. Through years of research and
novel-writing, I’ve a wealth of information to share.
Tell me about a writing-related
event from last year
I created my first decent ebook cover for the
Psychological Mystery The Forever House, launched during early summer,
but overlooked the “bleeds” necessary for a paperback edition – LOL! After an
initial horrified shriek, I turned to YouTube to immerse myself in a crash
course on photo-manipulation, and realised I enjoyed the challenge. The
attention to detail is very reminiscent of that needed when writing fiction.
