There’s a reason Brown’s books are bestsellers – they’re just so darn entertaining. But while I was entertained, I couldn’t help but have my writer’s hat on while reading. There’s so much to learn, especially about pacing, structure, and the way information is given to the reader.

I’ve written about writer’s block before, where I’ve suggested practical tips to get writing again. Sometimes, however, you may just need that quick burst of motivation to keep you going. That inspiration that reminds you why you are a writer to begin with.

In this update I talk about my recent day trip to the 2017 Clunes Booktown Festival, my current writing projects, and my upcoming Europe trip ( !! )

So happy to have another interview for the blog, this time with emerging writer and poet Dean Elphick. Dean shares his experiences on starting a blog, his writing process and advice for other emerging writers.

There are debates over whether writer’s block is an actual condition or just an excuse for procrastination; yet I think all writers will agree that there are times when putting words on a page is as painful as a tooth extraction.
