Rewriting an old story that I haven't finished or a piece that didn't work out as I wanted it to, is an excellent place to start. Then I have something to work on, and its not that horrible blank page starring back at me...
My husband says I never seem happy when I'm not writing. It feels like something is missing, there is a vague sense of unease as if I have lost a treasured possession and can't remember where I put it.(less)

Apart from the anxiety, you give yourself from wondering if you are good enough, talented enough or whether your book will sink without a trace.
I love to capture an idea or an emotion and turn it into a story. When you are writing and it's going well, time flies and you lose yourself in the world you are trying to create. It's magical and all-consuming. It's a wonderful feeling!(less)

Highlights from the blog tour of Nightmare Asylum & Other Deadly Delights!

I recently had my first ever book tour, which was hosted, beautifully by Blackthorn Book Tours. It was an exciting experience as I didn’t know what was going to be posted in advance and my book is kind of weird, so it was always going to be a bit of a surprise!
