Latest blog: Developing Character: Kim Bauer
To start with, there was how the book came to be. Including the inspiration, the writing, how to sell a bloody book, as well as the fact that there's a love story in there.
There's another blog on the Mind of the Maker .... better known as "characters are a bastard to control."
There is also, the dreaded question: "Oh, where do you get your ideas from?" This is the answer.
And, I did a two part essay ... one on sex, the other on violence.
I also had one or two issues on other people's writing ... namely Marvel Comics, and their former Editor-in-Chief, Joe Quesada
And, I had one nice little discussion on blowing up public places. ... In novels, of course.
There's one on writing philosophy in a novel, and one on Conspiracy theories around Catholics.
Then I took a hammer on writing cliche's that just flat out annoy me.
And then there's how to be a cynical romantic. Oh-ho-ho, have I gotten more so. And Writing a love story.
