    Apr 2 2026

    This week I’ve continued working through edits on Churchill’s Dragons and Four of Swords, keeping the momentum going across both projects.

    On the reading front, I finished Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, which I thought was excellent—a brilliant mix of science, tension, and heart.

    I also talk about my dark domestic fantasy project, Until the Wyvern Spoke, and share that I’ll be starting to post Silent Watcher on Patreon from Monday.

    Lots of new content on the way!

    I’m still not feeling 100%, so it’s been another editing-focused week.

    I’ve now finished editing RAF Dragon Corps Book 1 and moved straight on to Book 2, keeping things ticking along despite the illness.

    Big news this week: Final Flight—the finale of The Ravenglass Throne—is now live on Kindle!

    A huge milestone bringing the series to its conclusion.

    On the reading front, I’ve just finished This Inevitable Ruin (Dungeon Crawler Carl, Book 7), which I thoroughly enjoyed—a brilliant, chaotic end to the arc.

    The illness is still hanging around, so it’s been another editing-focused week. I’ve now finished my edits for The Prince and the Fool and sent it off for a professional edit.I’ve also been revisiting Dragon Squadron (RAF Dragon Corps, Book 1), going through the manuscript and tightening things up.On the creative side, I’ve written a short piece of music to accompany Until the Wyvern Spoke, which was a fun change of pace.I also share some storytelling lessons from Dungeon Crawler Carl—what’s working, what keeps readers hooked, and what I’m taking into my own writing.Grab yourself a cuppa—this one’s a bit longer than usual.

    Mar 13 2026

    I’m still feeling under the weather this week, so instead of drafting I’ve been focusing on editing. I’ve been working through ** The Prince and the Fool (Ravenglass Legends, Book 4)** to prepare the manuscript for a professional edit next month.

    I’m now around 70,000 words into the edit, so if all goes well I should have the manuscript finished early next week.

    On the reading front, I’ve moved onto the sixth Dungeon Crawler Carl book. I absolutely loved book five, but so far this one isn’t quite grabbing me in the same way.

    Mar 6 2026

    This week’s been a quieter one as I’ve been under the weather with a spring virus.

    Even so, I’ve been working through the edits for The Silent Watcher, making progress on polishing the manuscript.

    I’ve also been doing some reading and picked up Don’t Let Him In by Lisa Jewell, which was a gripping psychological thriller.

    Not the most energetic week, but still moving things forward behind the scenes.

    Feb 27 2026

    This week I’ve started work on Four of Swords as I continue with The Ravenglass Chronicles.

    It’s always exciting to begin a new instalment and see where the story leads next.

    I’ve also begun re-watching The Good Place with my son, which has been a lot of fun revisiting together.

    On the reading front, I talk about flagging a little with Dungeon Crawler Carl—still enjoyable, but I may take a short break before continuing.

    I’ve also been developing a new psychological thriller, inspired by one of my short stories from Influenced, and exploring where that idea might lead.

    Feb 20 2026

    This week I completed my final edits of The Silent Watcher and have now sent it off for a professional edit.

    I’ve also received the cover, and I’m looking forward to starting to post chapters on Patreon from March 2.

    Outside of writing, I went to see Deftones in Manchester—an excellent gig with a set leaning more into their shoegaze/epic rock side, which was perfect for me.

    On the reading front, I’m now onto the third Dungeon Crawler Carl book and still thoroughly enjoying its wacky, grimdark world.

    Feb 13 2026

    This week, I wrapped up Three of Swords (The Ravenglass Chronicles, Part 24)and moved straight onto writing a few chapters of Guild of Assassins Book 4.

    It’s been great shifting gears between projects while keeping the momentum going.

    On the reading front, I’ve jumped into the second Dungeon Crawler Carl book, and I’m thoroughly enjoying the ride so far. Safe to say, the series has me hooked.

    A productive week all round—on the page and off it.
