Mental Muse

I recently penned a short piece on authors and mental health issues, specifically the fight against stigmatisation.

SUSSEX WUNT BE DRUV

I am very very grateful to LAMBS (Locals Agains Mayfield Building Sprawl).

I thought the planned roadworks in the Lord of the Wyrde Woods books were possibly too far fetched, until I encountered the plans Mayfield Market Towns has for the development in the Adur River Valley in Sussex.

LAMBS have kindly let me join their protest by allowing me to walk my talk and pledge 50% of my royalties for Dance into the Wyrd to their campaign.

I really believe in the conservation of the countryside, and it's a wonderful feeling to know that the characters I created will now continue their effort to prove that 'Sussex Wunt be Druv' is more than a slogan.

Update Forgotten Road

Well, the first draft of Part One of Forgotten Road is finished, and at long last I've been able to distribute it to a number of proofreaders.

In the meantime, I'll work on getting that Part Two in some kind of a presentable shape.

Will's War

I may have some very good news about Will's War soon.

It has been revised quite dramatically, adding a secondary protagonist with a wholly different PoV.

Keep your eyes on this space ;-)

An Uncomfortable Truth

Someone, let’s call this person Anonymous, has given some harsh personal feedback. Anonymous suggested that some of the things Wenn experiences in Escape from Neverland and Dance into the Wyrd were highly uncomfortable to read and suggestive of an unhealthy imagination on my part. Wenn doesn’t talk about it till the end of Neverland and it only resurfaces shortly in Dance, other than that it is hinted at by Wenn in various references to men and their sexual appetites.

I answer this fully in a new hub which you can find here:

Oud-Leerlingen

Wat ontzettend leuk om jullie namen tegen te komen bij de giveaway van Escape from Neverland.

Oud-leerlingen uit Hilversum, Almere, Amsterdam en Utrecht. Ik vond het fijn om te zien.

Als je het wilt lezen, stuur dan effe een Goodreads berichtje. Het kan ook zonder mooie glossy cover en zo.

Giveaway News

Well, to lessen the odds somewhat I am also holding a Giveaway on my Nisse Visser author pages on facebook.

You have to like the page to participate and then...there's a little quest to fulfill. MWUAHAHA
