Due to the death-cold that has been plaguing me for the past week, I’m sorry to say that this week’s Starwalker post is going to be delayed. I’ve been off work all week so far, and tomorrow is looking shaky too. I’m on the mend, but slowly, and it is not terribly conducive to being […]

Feel free to take a look if you’re interested in behind-the-scenes stuff! (Don’t worry, there aren’t any spoilers for Book 3, only the story to date.) On that post, there is also […]

Wow. It’s been a rollercoaster of a ride, on both sides of the page! But, it’s finally done. This week’s post, Avatar, marks the end of Book 2 of Starwalker. This week is also the end of the second year of the Starwalker serial! Two years; two books; just over 200,000 words: I think that’s […]

This week’s post is the 100th in the story! Head on over to the writing blog for some musing on the journey so far, and more fun stats and facts. I’ve also updated the category names this week, to better reflect the book/chapter structure (mostly so that they display in the correct order). We’re moving […]

It’s been a hard week in the land of Starwalker writing. As I’m sure most of you are aware, this site was hacked and I’ve been fighting to get control back since it happened. I’ve only just regained control of the back end and this is the first chance I’ve had to let you all […]

Ship’s log, 15:32, 8 February 2214 Location: Gienah system, 40 years ago Status: Maintaining orbit around Gienah Sol I’ve been free for two days now. There should have been celebrations.
