Starting Out

Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time!
 

So in order to promote the fledgling writing career, (and for something to do on a rainy afternoon) I thought why not start a journal here (as opposed to anywhere else). I even know one or two people already!
 
I should probably explain at little...
 
The Holtlands is the setting for a lot of my writing, especially the novels, but one or two of the short stories as well. 
 
My poetry has appeared in Haruah magazine, as has my short story "Anything for Love". Another short story, "Falling", appeared in Issue 1 of Notebored and Liberty Hall's magazine - Turn the Page - winning the contest run on Notebored.

I mainly write fantasy fiction, although there is some poetry which comes out the way poetry generally does, as in when you are least expecting it and not equipped to deal with it at all. I'm currently writing a novel based on Irish mythology.
 
So I guess that's it for now.
