Intro

Hi I'm Kev, I have set up this blog being completely clueless as to what I'm going to say or do. That's pretty much like my writing, I have no plan or clear direction to follow, I go where the path takes me. I was told early in my career that to write a novel you must spend months planning your novels and getting to know your characters. I sat there thinking "what a waste of time" in six months I could almost have my novel written. That is of course, providing you have that amount of time to work on your project.

Most writers who are reading this will be like myself, still at their day jobs and trying to squeeze their writing in around their family life and work commitments. Believe me I know how tough it is, but there is nothing better than finding some time to yourself to enter your world and live life through your characters.

  1. Hi Kev, great blog, and one that offers your readers a real connection.

    My writing style is the same - I start with a macro idea and start writing. The story grows organically, and it can be very rewarding (or frustrating when you think you're at a dead end).

    Keep up the great work, and best of luck with Dream Raider. Success will come to you - no doubt about it.

    Kind regards
    Your friend in writing
