I’m really happy with the overall quality of the epub at the moment and this is what prompts me to write up this post in which I would give an outline and reviews of all the pieces included. Let’s talk about Thread first (this is my blog so of course I come first :P).Continue reading “Excursions from the Citadel- A Review by Moonlake”

Write-as-you-go plus Write-what-you-know
In between my commitments to my Writer’s home and the epub, I have most of my time occupied for time, not to mention that I’m back to FT work for a year. So I figured I better sneak in time whenever possible to actually write a post rather than doing lyrics posts or other alternativeContinue reading “Write-as-you-go plus Write-what-you-know”
Triumph of the Short Stories (2)
Okay, I promised a made-up post for forgetting my weekly post a while back. Here it is while I have some news to share. I have completed a second short story, this time a sole effort, for the epub venture. Okay, technically, it’s only half the completed story but I’m running it as aContinue reading “Triumph of the Short Stories (2)”
Triumph of the short story
Firstly, Happy New Year, everyone (While today is not New Year’s Day, this is the post of mine that you are reading this year) This must be the most dramatically titled post of mine so far. This is driven by the fact that I just completed the first short story in my life (technically untrueContinue reading “Triumph of the short story”
Moonlake’s Writing Updates (4)
Hmm…. I forgot about last Sunday’s post. Ah well, there will be a make-up post either today or forthcoming. Today, I’m just going to do another writing update. Unfortunately, the short story that I said I was committed to finishing really didn’t work out and I just became so ‘out’ of the story thatContinue reading “Moonlake’s Writing Updates (4)”
Moonlake’s Writing Updates (3)
I thought I had released this already but somehow a sneak peek back in here revealed that I didn’t and it’s not even saved as a draft! Anyway, this is a quick post to let everyone know that I will officially be back in Nov. which isn’t that far away. I added a drop-down todayContinue reading “Moonlake’s Writing Updates (3)”
Chinese Lore- Legendary Chinese String Instruments (Guqin) (3)
Now, the last of this series: Pillar Circler Appearance & Characteristics: Its name came from a story published in a famous ancient text: a renowned female singer from the Han region in the Zhou dynasty who was travelling to the Qi kingdom but ran out of money half way and so had to resort toContinue reading “Chinese Lore- Legendary Chinese String Instruments (Guqin) (3)”
Moonlake’s Writing Updates (2)
Okay so I’m back but only to say that I want to extend my leave to end of September. I’ve gone through a couple of false starts but I’ve started on the short story for the epub project that I talked about in the last post and have just passed the 1000 words mark. ThisContinue reading “Moonlake’s Writing Updates (2)”
Moonlake’s Writing Updates (1)
Firstly, the good news: I’m officially part of the Strolenati commercial epub group and in the process of writing my first short story for sale (all right, I wrote and abandoned a short story before but that was basically a self-amusement project)! We are just starting and there’s now less than 5 members including myselfContinue reading “Moonlake’s Writing Updates (1)”
