Andrea Barrett, on writing:
I've never known a writer who didn't feel ill at ease in the world.
We all feel unhoused in some sense.
That's part of why we write.
We feel we don't fit in, that this world is not our world, that though we may move in it, were not of it.
You don't need to write a novel if you feel at home in the world.
- Andrea Barrett.

Slipped Masks … project update:
Received the proof copy
of my thriller novel: Slipped Masks.
Working through some
final adjustments and then the book will be available.
My wife has already
read the book in manuscript form. She’s observed all the way through this creative
process: from discussions of ideas, research, sources
of inspiration, hand-scribbled notes, earlier drafts … right through to
completion. It was a sweet moment to see her smile and the delight in her eyes,
as I placed the paperback version in her hand.
Can’t wait to get to
work on the first book of my detective novel series, entitled: The Breaker.
More to come.
When published, a
percentage from sales will be donated to Multiple Sclerosis research.
