Arthurian Robin Hood Sherlock

February 28, 2012 by

7

So on Friday night I read A Study in Scarlet. It was shorter than I remembered. But then, it’s been a while since I’ve read it. Possibly a very long while. I started to feel these echoes of familiarity as soon as I laid eyes on the inscription on the first page and the feeling […]

This is an Unreasonable Extrapolation Given the Evidence

February 23, 2012 by

Raven: How goes? Me: I am writing extremely clever words. Well, funny words. Well, they’re making me laugh. Although I haven’t slept a lot lately, so. Yeah. Turns out if you write things in your sleep and then forget about them you get the opportunity to read your own work as if someone else has […]

Because Words Mean Different Things to Different People

Sleeping well is only waking up three or four times a night rather than more. Sleeping well is being able to roll over and go back to sleep at least 75% of the time. Sleeping well is not being either trashed or manic as a result of lack of sleep all the time. Sleeping well […]

Not Writing a Love Story

February 20, 2012 by

I feel like I’m accidentally writing a love story. I’m writing the story of these two guys meeting. And it’s going to be the beginning of an epic friendship. And that’s fine. That’s… dandy. But I’m at this point where they’re sort of beginning to trust each other for the first time. Where they realise […]

That Awkward Moment When You Read a Sentence And it Doesn’t End the Way You Thought it Octopus

February 16, 2012 by

I’m beginning to get nervous about the length of Wizards. Not that it’s actually that long as of yet but… it’s like I’m drawing something and even though only a small section exists I can see the shape of what’s coming and… I’m afraid my theory of how much of the plot I am going […]

Just So We’re Clear, Seven Hours of Sleep in Two Days is Not Enough

February 15, 2012 by

So according to Rick my newly developed sleeping patterns are an illustration of a Karnaugh map. An array of Yes, No and I don’t care leaving me with not enough sleep.* This is like the time Arkem convinced Shig to forge my signature on the internet by telling him it looked like math. For the […]

The Horrible Unreasoning Fear That THIS Would Happen

February 10, 2012 by

6

I have reached the rather odd point in my life where I now buy books rather than borrowing from somewhere to read first. I’m not sure why this is odd. Perhaps it’s not. Perhaps everyone does that. But I used to live with a book courier (a.k.a librarian-mother-who-would-bring-me-books) and spend a rather obscene amount of […]

How the Apocalypse Happens

February 9, 2012 by

Paul S: Are you still looking for good names? Me: I am always looking for names. I have a collection. I chloroform them and pin them to the wall and cackle with glee. Paul S: Hopefully they “go to sleep and never wake” from the chloroform — rather than wake up pinned to a collection […]

The Dark Side is a Choice

February 8, 2012 by

0

While I was wrestling with yet another version of a synopsis for Path the other day (this one encapsulating the series as a whole rather than just the first book) I realised there’s a recurring narrative element I hadn’t been fully aware of previously. It’s about the different flavours of dark side you can go. […]

What Legends Are Made Of

February 7, 2012 by

There’s a rhyme you probably know: Sugar and spice and all things nice, that’s what little girls are made of. Slime and snails and puppy dogs tails, that’s what little boys are made of. It’s a rather stupid rhyme. Which made me want to be something else entirely. But once upon a time the title […]
