When you love a kitten you are just happy watching them play, aren’t you? The same goes for babies, for many. Footballers for others. If you love them, you will just keep watching even if they don’t appear to be doing much.
I have been reading Little Womenby Louisa May Alcott, of which I think I read a children’s version when I was younger (it certainly all feels very familiar) and I have reached…

The other day I found myself in an odd situation: I was happily driving but I was moving nowhere. I was pressing my foot onto the accelerator and wildly moving the steering wheel left and right like they did in black and white films, but the distinct lack of moving scenery out of my drivers’ side window was painfully apparent. The wheels were turning, the engine was on and I had Radio 4 cranked…

I'm still here
I’m still here
I’ve been away for a little while. I’ve still been here, where I always am in real life, living in my home and going about my usual routine, I’ve just away from the world of blogging. The reason? Well, thanks for asking, and I’m sure you probably didn’t even notice I’d gone, so more thanks for your politeness, but I have been struggling with focus and motivation, to put it plainly.
I’m still…

You have decided to write about a couple of characters you’ve spent the last few months getting to know well. You have written them into plays, short stories, monologues and written letters between them. You know them well and yes you created them but, as always with writing, there comes a moment where the bubble you’re blowing suddenly pops through the spiky plastic…

Get, get, get auf der internet
Get, get, get auf der internet
I just want to take a moment to extol the virtues of the internet: it is, as most of us believe, great. But I should be more specific because, it’s like my husband said this morning as I raved about the web: it’s the people who take time to add stuff to the internet – useful, interesting stuff – that are great.
Today, I wanted to know what day it was on 28th January 1967. Why, it was a Saturday…

Getting into a novel
Getting into a novel
I must have been subconsciously stewing over an idea I didn’t even know I had, when I wrote a recent blog postabout how I like to write the things I do. To date they have been: a novella; dramatic monologues; short stories; poems; and short plays. I discussed how things occur in my scribbly world and how this certainly applies to the genres I write, but, *scoff* if you want to write a novel, then…

There's method in the madness
There’s method in the madness
We all have our own way of doing things. Some people like to reverse all the way down a long driveway even if there was room at the top to turn around (true story); some people put the milk in first when making tea (I’m no George Orwell about tea though); some people like to build walls between the USA and Mexico (**TOPICAL JOKE MOMENT!**). For better or worse, difference in thinking is what…

Happy New Year everyone!
Now that life feels like Christmas never happened I wanted to give you an update on how my writing’s been going over the Christmas period. In short, I didn’t do any. Not a jot. But I’m not feeling bad about it because I have come to realise that I need to live a life too, and if seeing friends and family is on the cards, whom I don’t see very often, then that’s got to be…

Milestones are there, you know
Milestones are there, you know
I have got a snazzy new Christmas hair cut (what do you mean you didn’t notice?) and this evening I sat down to look at Twitter with a cup of decaff.
A lovely lady on Twitter called Rayne Hall asked her followers to name a writing milestone they have reached in 2016. At first glance I ignored it because Life is What Other People Do and I haven’t Achieved Anything in My Writing… But then I stopped…

Write off the Bat interview
Write off the Bat interview
As promised in the last blog post, here is a transcription of the interview I did with writing community website, Write off the Bat. Hope you enjoy it!
WotB: What made you decide to keep a writing blog?
KHB: Well, it’s been several years since I started so it’s a vague memory now (a bit like childbirth according to what I’ve been told about it). But I mainly wanted to have something like a…

Bringing it all back home
Bringing it all back home
A close friend of mine has recently asked me a few questions to publish on her website about why I write and why I blog. Apart from it being a pleasure to help out such a lovely person and one who shares my love of writing, it was an exciting prospect to answer some questions about my writing because it made me feel like a proper writer!
The other interesting thing was the realisation that these…

Mind the gap (and don't eat the ice cream)
Mind the gap (and don’t eat the ice cream)
There is an odd time that exists between writing two pieces of work. It’s the gap between completing your last project and starting your next. It’s a sort of Neapolitan tub of ice cream that goes from chocolate to vanilla to shit flavoured in the space of about a week, depending on the frequency of writing.
The chocolate flavoured stage– It can go something a little like this:”I have just written…

It only takes a moment
It only takes a moment
It only takes one moment of your life, of your day, to click it into action. I sit knowing my husband will soon be home – click – I feel a strong sense of happiness in the countryside – click – I close my eyes to listen to music – click – I change a plant pot of a choking plant – click – I see a radiant autumn sky – click… It only takes one moment for a poem to appear. The rest is up to me to make…
