- So many writers come to class with one question dominant in their mind, 'How do I make a living from this?' It's a fair enough question and one I always try to answer well - but it saddens me that it so often overshadows the more relevant questions of 'why am I writing' and 'what am I saying' and 'how do I keep it honest.'
[NOTE: I get many requests to read and comment on manuscripts, which I have to regretfully decline. However I do occasionally work as a consultant for The Inkwell Group If I am accepting MS's at the time and you ask for me by name, they will pass your work on to me.

Look what the O’Brien Press sent me last week! The cover for the Irish edition* of Into The Grey. Squeeee. Isn’t it the business? It’s going to be all shimmery and fog wreathed and special effects-ish apparently. Cannot wait to hold … Continue reading
