Writing
Word Count: The word count for my current work in progress is… 10,924
I'm enjoying my first time writing a novel. It’s interesting to write something longer and let the idea breathe.
The cover reveal for In Plain Sight, Unseen is coming VERY soon.
Then I’ll have it up for preorder wherever you buy your books.

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon
I had fifteen pages left when I put it aside. I was bored throughout and
couldn’t be bothered finishing it.
The Devils
I preordered Joe Abercrombie’s latest book, released last month. The strongest aspects of Joe’s books are his ability to write character and to include comedic moments. The Devils is a completely new world to Abercrombie’s First Law stories, and I’m interested to see the strengths og his writing in a brand new project.
The narrator of his previous books, Steven Pacey, returns to voice the new set of characters. Pacey is the best in the business, and I have a few credits built up on Audible, so I got myself the audiobook as well.
Firestarter
Couldn’t get into this book. I’ve abandoned it a hundred and something pages in.
Watching
Frankenstein & Dracula Trailers
The trailers for these two films were both released this month. Here is what I thought:
👉 Frankenstein
👉 Dracula
Game of Thrones
I’ve gotten to series four now. Just watched Pedro Pascal’s head burst.
Dark
I haven’t watched any of this for a few weeks. I’m well into the third series.
