Moonlake’s Lyrics (22)

As it turnedContinue reading “Character Sketches (2)”

The last three weeks saw me mostly mired in all kinds of promotion activities for the epub and now it’s time to catch up with the actual writing. So while I could have blogged about something more substantial, unfortunately I have to take the slack approach of doing a lyrics post again for this week.Continue reading “Moonlake’s Lyrics (21)”

A Restless Mind

To be honest, I have more than enough things floating around my mind to blog about but as the title of this post indicates, I’m suffering from a restless mind at the moment. So I might as well commit the clamour to my blog and then move on. I think it comes from two mainContinue reading “A Restless Mind”
