Author, Interrupted was my writing blog from approximately August 2013 (after a reboot) to 2020, when I was writing a blog just as an author. I’ve merged it with this main book site, but if you’re looking JUST for the author posts I made, they’re here.
This year, we're running our chatrooms again. We had hoped to get it all moved over onto Gloucestershire Writers, but never mind! We have several chatrooms right now, depending on your project, but the main Nanowrimo Gloucestershire rooms are linked here while the...
I honestly try not to whine too much about where my life is, versus where it should be because 'should be' is an ideal world. But regular readers of my blog will know that for the last year and a bit, I've been fighting what feels like a losing battle against...
Yeah, OK, sorry if that reminds you of X-mas, but for me, this is the most wonderful time of the year - or at least, it's supposed to be. For those of you that are new to the blog, I'm pagan (a white woman as it happens), and so Samhain starts an amazing month and a...
Welcome to the tour for Stella Samuel's book, 34 Seconds. To kick off the tour, I asked Stella to share with me a recipe with me that meant something to her for her or her book. Stella told me she was sharing recipes with me - Steamed Crabs and Hush Puppies. I live...

Hi guys and gals. Bear with me a sec, while I explain something. At the end of June, myself and my business partner (Shaun Allan, he of Sin, and Darker Places, among other things) set up an app company. Then, a couple of days into the new company stuff, I fell down...
Today on the blog, I am delighted to welcome Novel Publicity's Tour for Logos. John Neeleman's book is absolutely worth it, so let me introduce you to the book, and the tour. Review of Logos Read to the end of the blog for ways to win and more about the book. First...
Yeah, yeah, I know. I've been talking about being pretty beaten lately - and I didn't do what I expected to do this May and take time off - I managed three whole days, where I felt seriously guilty and annoyed that I was maybe missing stuff that I needed to help out...
I love making quotables on my phone - I use a couple of apps and post them at night while getting ready for bed and winding down. If I've made a lot, I queue them up to post later in the evening. I love the quotes I've found, so there are a couple that are different...
I'm trying to get into the habit of exercising regularly, eating well and writing. The last few months, I've spent my days feeling quite sorry for myself. It's true, I got Glass Block out, but I feel like I'm not managing everything that I want to do. I've talked to...
