Falling Ice. Nov. 19
I was watching my husband play Nintendo's Super Mario Brothers and I was noticing a trend. The atmosphere of the game reacted to Mario as he moved forward. His enemies would move towards Mario…even where he was standing would react; the brick would shake, the ice would melt and the turtles seem t...

Military Historical Fiction
Writing "The Heart of Velletri" was challenging because I had to research battles that happened in Italy during WWII about which little was recorded. Thankfully I was able to find some books that my father had kept stored in the crawlspace of his home that had just the information I required. Sti...

MAYBE
MAYBE was storylined in detail from beginning to end. When the writing began it was made so much easier with this roadmap as a guide. It was a bit like meandering down a country lane in a pony and trap..... and then I realised that the strong characters of Angelo and Bill needed a counterbalance...

Closing down the blog
You might have noticed that the latest blog posts have largely been recaps and combinations of past blog posts. That is not by accident. I've been mulling it over for a while, and I've decided to shut down this blog. It's not bringing me the joy that it used to, and honestly, I feel pulled in so...

Movie review: Midway
It's hard for any of us today to fully understand just how much of an underdog the American military was in 1942. In the Pacific the Japanese had a bigger navy, more experience, and often better arms. We had no reason to believe they didn't plan to invade Hawaii, then go on to attack West Coast c...

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
In the Woods
, won rave reviews and multiple literary prizes upon its release in 2007. Since then, her books have tended to haunt the bestseller lists, on both sides of the pond, and for months at a time. British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
