I'm looking at #twitter and packing my virtual bags before the whole thing goes up in flames.

In other news, I've had interest from film/TV for my books; a 3 book deal with Storm Publishing; 3 books with Fledgling Press still being stocked by Waterstones/Foyles/Blackwells/Toppings and the Indies; 2 books needing a re-write and submitted and for the life of me I can't attract an agent.

I'm beginning to think I don't need one. What do you say, #writersofmasterdon?

Today I'll be mostly woke and a citizen of nowhere; a man without a king and a book to write. Enjoy frīġedæġ and spin those clouds #writersofmasterdon

Hi #writersofmasterdon this may be of interest. I asked AI to create a picture of the Private Investigator I'm writing based on my description and set in Glasgow. Not a bad first attempt.

Almost 12k into the second book in a series with no bites on the first. That's optimism 4U

Some of the #slam poets are going to four bears books to see @caverhsamwrtiters this evening.

Just over 86k and now into the line edit of my #WIP.

#writersofmasterdon Chapter titles?

feeling good, my research is showing women led the thrust of immigration to the Orkneys. ‘The Farmer Needs a Wife?’. It’s hard to know what happened in the cold mists of the Bronze Age. I write fiction so I’ve concentrated on evoking that past as it might have been, using historical facts and intuition to help bring my world alive. Changes in DNA, culture, and language happened and were absorbed into the culture – life was fluid #writersofmasterdon #amwriting #bronzeage #historicalfiction

Still waiting for my first postcard to arrive from somewhere in the world. I recently came across Postcrossing ( who knew that was a thing?) and as I like people and other cultures, plus I'm a nosy writer I had to have a go.....it's so annoying we're having a postal strike here in UK. Bah Humbug.

@natania Sounds good. It's so rewarding to have a flow like that. Hope u got some incredible stuff done.

finishing a collection of short stories for Nanowrimo: Project was to write 30,000 words just done 40,412 feeling elated. Now I have to see how many more stories I need to establish a strong theme. My first collection was loosely-themed retribution, but I'm having trouble deciding what to weave this collection around. That's the trouble with forging ahead and thinking about planning later! I'm def., a panster, like gut instincts. #writersofmasterdon #amwriting #nanowrimo #shortstories

@MKDean_writes I have a passion for semi-colons, think I'm out on a limb with them tho.

@MKDean_writes Haha, I'm old and slow, the thoughtfulness here calms me..I hated being all a twitter. As for Oxford comma, I'm dyslexic so leave their appearance in my prose to the editor! Lifes too short - I'd rather write rough.

@JamieGreen love this, it's creative magic. I used to use this a lot when I facilitated workshops. Happy scribbling. 👍
