In my last post I announced that I would be trying to write 72 poems in a single day. I am pleased to tell you that I now have everything locked in for that including a project title and a cover mockup! I'll be streaming on my YouTube channel for some of the time - … Continue reading The Night of Rhyming Dangerously
From 08:00 SAST on Saturday, 4 April 2020, to 07:59 SAST on Sunday, 5 April 2020, I'm going to be trying to write at least 3 poems every hour. That's 72 poems at the end of the day...
Hi folks. I’m sorry this week’s episode is late, again.

Hi folks, before we start the episode, I just have a little bit of housekeeping to take care of. First, I’m sorry that this episode is a couple of days late.

Then a comment … Continue reading It Was the Worst Time to Get Sick…
OUT OF SIGHT by Liam Saville The woman sitting across from me was rake thin, in her late fifties or early sixties, and had obviously been crying. It would be a good bet that whatever it was that had brought her to my office was behind her tears. I handed her the tissue box from … Continue reading Episode 002: Out of Sight & The Fairies Want Me Dead
My attempt at the Christian Indie Writers Podcast 15 minute prompt for 28/02/2020
Recently I've been taking part in the livestream recordings of the Christian Indie Writers Podcast. The commute home on Friday evenings has become one of the best parts of my week.
