Yeah, book one as in 1 of 3. I don't know. I think maybe this has become so much of an obsession to me I can concentrate on anything else. Maybe, I don't know. I could try that.

I am coming to realise I have a failure of concept, or story. Despite a very long time writing, a hundred drafts and about 6 or seven finished first novels, I think I might be at the stage where I've come to the point of accepting a failure of concept. Not a failure in my ideas, or story, or...

Or they offer their own ideas. Why don't you do it this way ect.

I think as long as they fit with internal logic and make sense within your world then they're fine. I mean, I always find it distracting when I read a book where the place is called, for example, Mordor or Malazan, and you have someone called Johnathan and Chloe.

As the title suggests. If you were reading a story by an author, who'd published his second series completely separate to the first, would you consider the following unimaginative? Group of people arrive in a foreign land after fleeing the aftermath of an ill-fated rebellion, one of the group...

How about being afraid you've only got one idea and that's why you seem afraid to write it. Let's see. I failed my 2017 goals and so I refuse to set some for 2018 as I know I'll fail. I just need to hope my grasshopper mind will die and I can settle on an idea. One idea to tell ONE story rather...

I've never thought of it like that. The people of this generation are usually claimed to have short attention spans, and thus explains why Moffatt seems at ease with ignoring continuity. So why bother following through with something he wrote or stated before when the audience won't remember...

But he was the 12th Doctor. 10th regenerated in Journey's End but kept the same face, meaning he was the 11th Doctor. And he's still a regeneration so the War Doctor counts, especially when they say to him, you were the Doctor when it was impossible to get it right. They are called the...

But then again Moffatt has proven that he doesn't really put much care into what he writes.

Because he rushed through the regenerations in one episode. Instead of Matt Smith being the 11th he became the 12 and final incarnation and which ruined the whole fall of the 11th at Trenzalor, a question will be asked, thing from season 6 which now means, David Tennant obviously visited...

Remember when people used to hate on RTD? We all thought Moffatt was the best writer, but he's ended up the worst. His inability to remember what he wrote a year ago with storylines and inconsistency being the worst. Also messing up the regeneration cycles. I think too much effort was put in to...

Ok, Merry Christmas first of all. I'm having difficulty with one of my major plot factors. There is a group known as the Guardians who originally fought against the End-Lords. They defeated them in a battle which saw magic destroyed and allowing the world to progress in technology, because...

Because it's a fantasy. It's just I am aware I need to be aware of things. It's a secondary world with a landmass that's closest equivalent is Africa. Plot reasons as to why she's content at being protected is because she doesn't have any sword or rifle training and the bodyguard does.

They were both westernised, both had same educations. Just one has a hire aptitude for numbers.

The other one was westernised, but disappeared in another continent, and as wasn't as smart as the westernised one. But it's not a nice family, even though the father does love his children.

I would say it would be closer in our world towards the bottom end of the northern part.

Sometimes they would and sometimes they wouldn't. In China, some orphanages don't name children they just number them. It can be seen as a transaction. You pay for the child you get to name them. Yeah, that was one of the points I was going for originally, and what gives me some concern too...

As you know, we live in a hyper sensitive world these days so we've got to be extra careful when we write, talk, walk, look. So, I am reviewing my manuscript and certain scenarios to make sure things don't come across as tokenism in regards to characters and culture appropriations. I have a...

We've heard it from Brandon Sanderson. We've heard it from others. When writing a novel he has sometimes found one part of that book, whether a character, idea, scene, landscape does not work, and is immediately transferred into another where it does work. I.E the Way Of Kings and that other...

I am still working on the WIP that's broken me, but at least my writing is awesome compared to how it was when I started. 2003 to 2017 a hundred different variations but the backstory and main gist of it never changing.
