Judging from the title, you already know what I will talk to you about. Of course, anyone reading this will have at least a basic understanding of English. Yes, even you native speakers understand little of the nuances of the English Language. To start with, English is both a unique and non-unique language. What do … Continue reading The Language of English #1 – A (relatively) Brief History

An Excerpt From My Current Project
It's been a while since I last made any kind of post, so I thought I'd share something from my current major project. Without context, this is the chapter that I feel best reflects the tone and direction I chose to use in order to take The Elder Ones into the future. It also best … Continue reading An Excerpt From My Current Project
Crusader – Chapter Three
Previous Chapter Next Chapter III. Under the Canopy The journey to France was far from interesting and I spent much of it slumbering. A few times would one of my men check up on me and I was grateful they did such a thing. But I feared each of them began to understand the weight … Continue reading Crusader – Chapter Three
Crusader – Chapter Two
Previous Chapter Next Chapter II. Riding South The sensation of passing through the English countryside was something of a wake-up call for me. It showed me how different everything was since my last venture through the fields and the hills and the forests. Even the worn dirt track felt alien to me. I was content … Continue reading Crusader – Chapter Two
Crusader – Chapter One
The first chapter of a current project of mine, Crusader, all free for consumption. A labour of love and heartbreak and stress. A story set during the Third Crusade (1189-1192) focusing less on glorification of war and more on the story of one man trying to redeem himself in the eyes of the Almighty.

And on that day, the 11th of November, 1918, the guns fell silent. Nations could finally go into mourning for the sons they lost. For the daughters lost. For … Continue reading Remembering the Fallen
Crow: Now Available to Purchase!

It has been something of a trial for me to even finish. So, let's look at the history of Crow right now! Crow started out … Continue reading Crow: Now Available to Purchase!
Updates, Updates, Updates!
I don't do these updates as often as I used, but that is a good thing. It's allowed me to consider things more carefully and I find myself less rushed as it pertains to my writing. But I do bring good news for at least three of my projects currently in the works. So, I … Continue reading Updates, Updates, Updates!
Crusader
Yes, this is a cryptic title, but I will start by saying it does not have any negative connotations. Far from it. In fact, it is an idea I have. One that I am in the process of finalising even as I write this now. I will start by saying that Crusader is going to … Continue reading Crusader
