The Warlord is Warlord no more

So, there are plans afoot. Big plans. As some of you may know, The Warlord is going to be published – but, there will be changes. Big changes. The title, for one, and what was one long tale on here is being divided. The second part of the story is, on the basis of some […]

Editing…

Editing is a tiring, laborious process. It’s the painstaking mission to go through the story line by line and weed out typos, errors and inconsistencies. I already have the feeling that once I’ve completed the first round, a second round may be needed – or perhaps a proof-reading session from someone else, who can look […]

When Gatekeepers turn Nasty

Well, perhaps I should say nastier. Some observations have yielded a spot of misogynistic body-shaming, namely by attacking the weight of DSC character Sylvia Tilly (and therefore by extension, the actress who plays her, Mary Wiseman). Firstly, I’m not sure by what yardstick they can describe her as ‘fat’, unless that yardstick is based on […]
