Ever wondered what would happen if you let your characters lose to write a journal entry about their experiences with you at the helm of their story, or their life in your heads? Well, I thought I’d give it a go … “Dear Diary Day … 10091812 actually, forget that I’ve lost count. I’m not …

“Life finds a way”
Shuffling people around and you don’t expect it to have much of an impact. Or at least, that’s what Charlotte and I somehow keep fooling ourselves with. If we move person x to family y then what’s the worst that can happen? We get a fully functioning family and character that’s more fleshed out and …
Love is a many splendid thing
Love is a many splendid thing. It comes in many shapes and forms and sizes and it’s not always apparent of just what and how it’s capable of until you’re not looking at it. Our characters know love, for some of them it’s a fuel, a fuel to fight with and for others of them …
sabotage
Sometimes, Charlotte and I are just that good. Sometimes, we stagger ourselves with the amount of sheer brilliance we have. No, scratch that … it’s not brilliance, it’s utter stupidity and self sabotage. We’ve been talking for a while now about how utterly brilliant we are at self sabotage, at destroying our own pieces of …
Familiy
Family plays an important part in our world - no matter how many times we try and break families apart, more often than not they come back to one another. We have families that are born families and families that are found families. There are perfectly happy families and then there are the broken, dysfunctional …
A week in the making

For us, we could say that we needed longer to sit down and sort out everything. And to some degree that’s right, but on the other hand? This week has been incredible for us, where we have had a week to focus on what we want out …
Control Freaks
Summer feels like it’s finally on its way, as spring is well and truly here! Which is great for us, because we’ve finally got ourselves into gear. We have turned our world on its head, re-written our characters and our realms and our world and it finally feels as though we have everything where it …
“A rose by any other name is still a rose…”
Names are fickle things. Sometimes we like them, sometimes we don’t. Sometimes we’ll go by different names to our given ones. Names that have stuck since childhood, middle names and other such things. As writers, we give our characters names breathing life into them. They’re the things that identify them, making them who they are. …

All you need is love …
Sometimes, or alright a lot of the time, our characters leave us scratching our head and having a moment of … did that happen? Did you get the same thing that I did … is this actually what they are doing now?! And it’ll take us a little while to get past it because, well …
Resolutions
You know how it goes. New Year, new start, new beginnings. We make all of those resolutions and for the first week of January (if we’re lucky!) we manage to keep them. But, from there on out over time those good intentions slowly start to go out of the window … and before we know …
