Well done with the poetry acceptance! Keep going with the novel!! Do you try and chance anything if you've had a rejection? You know, opening, synopsis?

Hi, has everyone gone to ground with the onset of autumn? The site is definately a little light on contributions at the moment, so I thought I had better make an effort. Had another two rejections for my novel `The Newtown Tailor`, but on the up sid…

It's looking good! :)

Hi, Have just read your so called weird little story. It is far from weird, it is lilting and soothing in a disturbing way. You have captured the dream state very well. That strange feeling of being in control over things you know to be completely o…

Hi folks, at long last I have finished my web site and launched it. It was a huge learning curve even though I chose a site that gave templates, so it was a bit like a cross between word and publisher. The best thing was I didn't need to know any te…

Hi Christine
Big thanks for that. I think I am also afraid of being laughed at H.J. It's only been the last few months that I've admitted to friends I write too! I've looked for short courses here too but unable to find any out my way. Anyway, the only way is forward!! Glad you wrote...

Hiya
I read to keep it simple and not add to many images as it takes so long for a viewer to download a page - I know I'm closed a web down became of getting fed up with waiting!!! Mum is going to draw the images (save as jpeg once scanned in) and I'm going to check out other webs ... you know, see what they do with the text side of it.

Thanks for the message on my Starting A Website blog. Had a look at Front Page. As luck would have it, a colleague knows a web designer who is about to go it alone and for a bargin price (and portfolio reasons) she will design mine ...
Mum will draw images and I will scan at work (work for a Printers) and I will create a little write up (gulp) and it goes from there...

Have a good week!!!

Hi Christine
I read Chapter One and think it has potential. The only thing I would say is change the ref of young girls to young women. My mind thought the killings were children of about ten, then when the story reeached Leanne on the autopsy table, it mentioned her age as 20. Do you have a background in autopsies etc etc? (curiousity). You write really well and gave good visual to the reader!! Lesley

Is there anyone there?

Hi, has everyone gone to ground with the onset of autumn? The site is definately a little light on contributions at the moment, so I thought I had better make an effort. Had another two rejections for my novel `The Newtown Tailor`, but on the up side I have had a poem accepted for an anthology, so not too depressed at the moment. My website is doing okay, but now I need to spend a little bit of time and revamp it. I'm sure I'll find the time soon. The writing group I belong to are getting back t… Continue

New Web Site

Hi folks, at long last I have finished my web site and launched it. It was a huge learning curve even though I chose a site that gave templates, so it was a bit like a cross between word and publisher. The best thing was I didn't need to know any technical jargon, the site did everything for me. If you have a couple of minutes take a look and let me know what you think www.chriswilliamswriter.com. All the best Chris

Is there anybody out there

Hi folks, there seems to be a distinct lack of activity on the blogs at the moment, we are all obviously very busy or on holiday. I have just about finished editing The Mother Maker, and am now working like mad on my pitch for the Dragon's Pen at the Harrogate Crime Writers festival. I head up there on Wednesday when I'll meet a friend who comes over from Cyprus. The whole thing starts on Thursday morning and the Pen is around four o'clock so please send out some good thoughts for me. Once I com… Continue

More Crime than you can Shake a Stick at

Hi, Now we are in July I am on countdown to the Harrogate Crime writers Festival. It's three and a half days of non stop murder and I wouldn't miss it for the world.

This year I am pitching my novel to a panel of agents and publishers in what they have called the Dragon's Pen.

I am working hard on trying to put together a sharp, interesting two minute pitch. Having completed a manuscript of 90,000+ words, how difficult can a short pitch be?

I think pulling my finger nails out one at a time wo… Continue

Hay Festival

Hi, is anyone heading for the Hay Festival this year. I am hoping to manage a day there, but I haven' decided which one yet. I usually manage one day, but I missed out last year and I was sorry about that. It is such a great atmosphere there and I always manage to find interesting people to talk to. I also enjoy hitting all the second hand book shops and usually come home laden with books. I try very hard to limit what I buy to research books, but I have to admit the odd novel creeps in, I just… Continue
