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”

The Concept of Meta Fiction
I mentioned something called Meta Fiction in my last post and since it’s not a well-known term I think I better explain what it is in a follow-up post. Basically, I have come up with the following definition for it: it is a piece of prose written in the voice of a fictional characterContinue reading “The Concept of Meta Fiction”
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 (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)”
Character Sketches (1)
What I’m using to do these character sketches are based on my list of catalyst events and feelings that I had previously shared on this blog. Today’s entry was based on the following prompt: Feeling Composed amidst the Rise of a New Power. What I did was to brainstorm for 5 minutes on this promptContinue reading “Character Sketches (1)”
Live and Let Live (4)
I had found the inspiration to write up one more snippet after all but I think it would be the last. The main reason is that I don’t think it helps me to improve my writer craft since it is some kind of signature feature of my writing that I tend to delve into character’sContinue reading “Live and Let Live (4)”
Live and Let Live (3)
As promised, the belated snippet #3: “What is the ultimate purpose of education? To get a paying job…” Next she’s going to tell me about why the career I’m thinking would not provide me stable pay etc. Every time I wanted to discuss a possible area to head in that I might be interested,Continue reading “Live and Let Live (3)”
