Hi Everyone! Awkward bit of news that was made aware to me. When I converted my book to justified formatted text, some of the lines at the end of a few paragraph had a really awkward spacing issue occur. When I was told about it I went through every page to correct the strange spacing … Continue reading Mark of Silverfrost – Correction

Author Musings #1: The Hero Villain Dynamic
Hello everyone! I though I would expand on the part of my reviews where I talk about what writer’s can learn from the book. There’s often so much that I want to say in these small parts but it would risk derailing the entire review. Hope you enjoy it! ** Spoiler Warnings! ** Percy Jackson … Continue reading Author Musings #1: The Hero Villain Dynamic

Being OK with Imperfection
First off I wanted to apologize for how late this post is. Last week I was working on finishing the 3rd, and hopefully final edition, of my first book. I focused a lot on the artwork and formatting to print correctly on Amazon’s publishing service. Getting the cover art to fit correctly can be very … Continue reading Being OK with Imperfection

As a result, for the month of September I will be taking … Continue reading Update and Brief Hiatus
Book Review: On Writing and Worldbuilding by Timothy Hickson
I like to think of myself as a competent writer when it comes to storytelling. Though I may feel this about myself, objectively it will be left to my readers to determine whether or not this is true. This has been a line of thinking that has plagued me ever since I finished writing the … Continue reading Book Review: On Writing and Worldbuilding by Timothy Hickson
Scrivener, from a Windows Perspective
Last week I talked about how I wanted to write an article on Scrivener by Literature and Latte (that name is amazing by the way) but didn't learn enough back then to give a proper impression. I've given it a week while working on my second book so I could look at it with the … Continue reading Scrivener, from a Windows Perspective
Religion in Narrative Storytelling
Never thought I’d find myself writing an article like this, but after reading Shadowmancer by G.P. Taylor I found the inclusion of Christianity rather jarring. It was too much at the forefront of the novel rather than an element of the world building. It came off as rather heavy handed in my opinion and lead … Continue reading Religion in Narrative Storytelling
Worldbuilding : Maps
At the start of the year I started looking into releasing a second edition of my book with new additions I had learned about. There were many lessons in marketing and design I wish I had known initially when I first published my book to make it appear more professional. I finished a new cover … Continue reading Worldbuilding : Maps
