Strictly Writing: You, Me and Other People - Fionnuala Kearney
http://strictlywriting.blogspot.com/2015/07/you-me-and-other-people-fionnuala.html
Saturday, 25 July 2015. You, Me and Other People - Fionnuala Kearney. The Strictly Writing family is spread far and wide. Like all families we trade opinions, offer support and celebrate one another's successes. We don't send socks at Christmas though. Hello again, Fionnuala. Do you have a set routine for writing, or a favourite time and place? I work from my study at home, which is the smallest bedroom upstairs. I work surrounded with pictures and notebooks and I face the front garden so have a view...

The Long And The Short of It. Saturday, 14 May 2011. A big thank you to Janice Horton for passing me the Versatile Blogger Award - the rules of acceptance are to tell you seven things about myself that you might not already know. I've had a problem thinking of 7 things that might make me sound vaguely interesting but anyway here goes 7 bits of trivia about me:. My co-workers and I deliberately damaged packets of biscuits (KitKats were favourite) so we could buy them cheap. Can you blame us? And now I'll ...

Mandy's Musings: How Many Words Did You Write Today?
http://mandykjameswrites.blogspot.com/2015/05/how-many-words-did-you-write-today.html
Saturday, 16 May 2015. How Many Words Did You Write Today? This morning I decided I would do those thousand words, but so far have only managed one hundred and thirty-one, but I have decided it doesn't matter. They are the first words of chapter six and I think they are pretty good words. I expect they might get swapped around, deleted or changed in some way, but I am happy with them. Isn't that what matters? July dawns were like notes of hope. They reminded the days to be bright, fresh and summery.

Tuesday, 7 April 2015. Brain food or subtext? As much as we think of writers as solitary creatures, writers need. People. (And no, not just to buy the books! Who you gonna call? The right writers' group can transform your understanding of your own book, enabling you to gain valuable and objective insights about your work. Some of the benefits. You can set ground rules, so that the feedback is structured in a particular way. You can learn from the experiences of other writers. Some of the challenges.

Strictly Writing: March 2015
http://strictlywriting.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, 14 March 2015. Different man, different hat. It's customary when a brilliant author dies (by which, I mean someone who has something to say and who makes us think) for the great and the good to trot out stories about them. Terry Pratchett didn't just create a whole world; he created an entire universe, complete with its own physics, along with a giant turtle moving through space. I never met Terry Pratchett, so my stories, though anecdotal, are tangential. She put down her herb tea and nodded t...

Strictly Writing: December 2014
http://strictlywriting.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, 14 December 2014. A Christmas Ghost Story.ish. Something ghostly this way comes? This year there's a new pre-Christmas ghost story in the air. You might have read about it in the news. A debut author has, shock and horror, received help from her publisher in bringing her book to life. Okay, that's a broad brush. Let me be a bit more specific: a ghostwriter worked on it with her. Do I hear the sound of dropped cups, swooning and monocles falling out of place? Katie Price's ghost-writer,. Will Gomp...
