Fast Five: A Review

I've finally made it all the way to the 5th film in the series. Fast & Furious 5 as it was called in the Uk, Fast Five elsewhere. This one was again a little different to the previous four films. Rather than focusing on the street racing they chose to head in a slightly more [...]

Designing t-shirts: What not to do

While setting up the new t-shirt company I did my usual trick and dived into the world of designing without really thinking. As such I made quite a few mistakes early on that cost me quite a bit of time. I thought I'd share a few of those here, mostly because their funny (looking back [...]

Character Interview: Sherdan

Here's the second interview. This one's with Sherdan. Why are you in charge? This whole facility was my idea, I'm the one who knows what the exact goal of this place is. Who else would be in charge? What are you going to do with Anya? Nothing harmful. She posses no threat currently and offers [...]

Learning To Fly: Revamped

I've been given the honour of putting two of my short stories forward for a collaboration of shorts by me and two other authors. The genre is going to be fantasy so I thought I'd revamp one of my favourites Learning to Fly, I added some stuff, named my characters and here is the next [...]

Fast and Furious: A Review

This is the 4th film in the franchise and possibly my favourite. I struggle to decide whether I like this one more or the first but this one probably spends over half the time being my favourite. I think mostly it's because I am relieved they go back to the format of the first, and [...]

Music: A Distraction

I often listen to music while I'm working. I really don't like silence so it provides a background noise and I feel more comfortable. Lately, however, I've found myself very distracted by what I am playing. For a long time I used spotify and had a playlist with lots of well known songs on. The [...]

Character Interview: Anya

As promised here's the interivew with Anya, thank you everyone that provided questions. Why have your Church sent you here? The group Sherdan has set up here has begun to worry them, especially with rumours that he's following some kind of prophecy about the end of the world. I was sent to find out what [...]

The Plan: July 11

Last Month's progress: The month just gone was pretty much as I imagined it. Lot's of business stuff, writing contracts, and talking over business details for different things. I did get the first draft of my other short done as well, however, and made a little more progress with book 2 as well as some [...]
