Hi everyone! I’m really happy with how Starwalker is heading now that it has restarted. Thanks so much for all your feedback and support! Sadly, this year hasn’t got off to as great a start as the story. I’ve been pretty much sick since 2014 ended (and the last post went up), with a touch […]

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you all know that I’m working on Starwalker again and it is coming along. I have a plan of attack and I’m working to get enough of it written to be sure it’s going to head in a better direction. The redirection of the story will involve going back […]

Hi everyone. I’ve been mulling over what to do next for a while, and I’ve come to the conclusion that I need to take a bit of a break from Starwalker. The story isn’t going the way I want it to. I had a plan for how the last section of Book 4 would go, […]

Hello everyone! You may have noticed that the website has been a bit unstable lately (more than usual). I certainly have, and I’m pretty unhappy about it. I’m currently starting the process to look for another web host. It’s not going to happen quickly, so don’t worry. Changing over will involve a bit of downtime […]

Hi everyone. Sorry for the late notice, but it looks like this week has defeated me (mostly, I’m not well). The post is not ready, and you all deserve something better than a half-baked attempt, especially as it’s getting into the last phase of this particular storyline. I apologise for the delay. You are all […]

I am so frustrated right now. This week has been pretty hellish. Work is insane. We’re finishing one big project and planning the next, and on top of the usual project changeover shenanigans, I have an intern to settle in and an important event to organise and run tomorrow. I’ve been up early and home […]

So, we almost had a post this week. Almost. I’ve been struggling to get to it over the past few days, and finally managed to power through it tonight. I was so close to finishing that I was all but pasting it into WordPress and fondling the ‘publish’ button. And then the netbook computer made […]

I dropped the ball last week. I was working away on the post, battling various distractions and impediments, and it was always so close. If I could just get a couple of hours here, or there, it would be done. But it wasn’t. I apologise for that, and for not letting you guys know earlier. […]

So, the day job exploded. Nothing bad! Don’t panic; I promise it’ll all be fine in the end. Let me give you an idea of what’s going on in the department where I work. We’re in the last couple of weeks of a 2-year project, so it’s all hands on deck to get things finished, […]
