I wrote the first draft of The Tainted Vintage as part of the National Novel Writing Month challenge. I had wanted to write a crime novel for some time and thought if I set myself the challenge of writing a novel in a month it would at least get me started. In the end I wrote 52,000 words in 29 days. I surprised myself, which is a nice place to be!(less)

I was meant to write!(less)

“The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you choose, what you think, what you do—is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny … it is the light that guides your way. —HERACLITUS”

Heraclitus

Heraclitus
“The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way.”
Heraclitus
