I’m Celebrating… Crazy Writing Goals!

27th September 2013 By Shah Wharton 16 Comments

The Small Things meme

This post is part of VikLit‘s blog hop, Celebrate the Small Things. To be part of this blog hop, all you have to do is follow the link and put your name on the Mr.Linky list, then be post every Friday about something you’re grateful  for that week.  It can be about writing or family or school or general life.   I wanted to share this meme with you guys, as I think you might like to jump on board and share your writing goals (or any … [Read more...]

Progression & Hosting Changes: #ROW80 & #NaNoWriMo Updates 25/11

25th November 2012 By Shah Wharton 2 Comments

Welcome back all you Thanksgiving peeps. Did you enjoy your turkey and ham celebrations? Being a Brit, living in Dubai, I don't partake myself, but I still spent a little time looking around me, missing the hubs who's away at work, playing with the ever insistent pest that is Bobby, and I felt grateful for my lot. I smiled a lot yesterday. I had that silly giggly feeling and felt inside as if I'd been covered in a thick layer of hot custard: Warm, sweet and yummy. Today, I'm feeling … [Read more...]

Disappointing #ROW80 & #NaNoWriMo Updates 21/11

21st November 2012 By Shah Wharton 12 Comments

King Bobby - Love this picture.

#ROW80 / #NaNoWriMo Updates Writing:  I received more of my editors notes since last update a week ago and I have been working on the comments and suggestions, accepting the changes and making others. She confessed she might have to take till the end of the month to complete however, as her original prediction of 20th November was a little conservative. I did wonder, its a 125k MS after all. This is still EXCELLENT because along with the chunks of work she's sending as she completes … [Read more...]

A quandary PLUS #ROW80 & #NaNoWriMo Updates 14/11

14th November 2012 By Shah Wharton 3 Comments

#NaNoWriMo

Quandary? It's nothing too problematic, more a question of ethics really. A question of whether I have any, and if so, how much do they cost? You see, every now and again I get offers from advertising companies who'd like to pay me for advertising their product on my blog. I'm sure you've all received the same thing if you are a fellow blogger. Sounds great? But so far, the randomness of their product has meant I said no thanks... I didn't want to back anything on my author/bookish blog which … [Read more...]

#NaNoWriMo 2012 Begins! Bring on the Caffeine

31st October 2012 By Shah Wharton 6 Comments

nanowrimo

I missed ROW80 updates yesterday - I'd previously scheduled another post and allowed myself to enjoy a few hours of freedom after finally emailing my MS (Finding Esta) to my editor! Hurrah :)Then, early evening I thought it was time to check out my NaNo account, and open up a new doc. in Scrivener. I have thebook at my side, ready to help my little brain work my way though it and I made that all important decision - What will I write this year?Answer: the 1st re-write of the second … [Read more...]

Dread: A Horror Collection

This is a deeply unsettling collection of British horror. Each story features a post-apocalyptic theme, though each is starkly different from the other.

A Slow Burn:
“I will admit to having read this with the lights well and truly on!! Such vivid imagery[…]I highly recommend this novella to all lovers of this genre.” 

The Dead Party:
“One of the best political satires that I’ve come across in a long time!” 

Rosa and Bella’s Journal Of Decline:
“Brilliant and addictive. Yet another fantastic book from this author.”
