    Well, here I am, back with the first writing update of 2023! I hope all you reading this had a restful and renewing holiday. I know I certainly did, at least in terms of writing: I was a bit exhausted at the time of the last update, but now I’m ready to get back to

    As a writer, you’ve basically got two options when it comes to getting published: traditional publishing or self-publishing. For a new writer trying to get noticed, neither is a terribly reliable option: there are no guarantees in this game. However, I’m very much convinced that, of the two, traditional publishing is by far the better

    Well, I won’t lie to you all: this week was a pretty slow week for writing. That doesn’t mean nothing got done at all, of course. I’ll get into that in a second. But all in all, this week was not the most prolific. There are several reasons for this, of course, the major one

    Well, it’s that time of the week again. You all saw the title, you know what’s going on here…so let’s hop to it. As expected, work this week has mostly centred around The 2nd Realm. I’ve managed to get into a little bit more of a groove this week, although it’s still sort of been

    And so here it is: the first writing update. I could troll you all and make this update one sentence long: there’s not really much to update you on. But that would leave a bad taste in everyone’s mouth, I think. I mean, I’ve been saying for weeks now that writing updates would be one

    Alright, so I recently finished A Dance with Dragons, the fifth and last of the available volumes in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire. So now that I’m all the way through it, what did I think of the series as a whole? Well…I loved it! OK, that’s it, folks, review’s over.

  • Chasing the White Whale: My Experience (so far) with the Publishing Industry

    Last week I said I’d talk more about the publishing industry, and my experience with it. To be frank, I haven’t had a lot of it. I’ve queried two of my books to agents, and sent a few different short stories around for publication. Only one of those queries, of course, ended with success. Oh,

    Well, here it is. The first proper BS&K post. Always great to start something new. And there’s no better place to start than a brief look at what I’m working on. Well, OK, maybe I’ll give you all a (very condensed) look at what I’ve done so far. Up to this point, I’ve either finished

    So I’m guessing for most of you, the first question on your mind is probably: What in blue blazes is Blood, Sweat and Keyboards? Well, in a word, Blood, Sweat and Keyboards is going to be my space to talk about writing. Primarily, at least: a few other topics might sneak in every now and
