2016 is here

Happy New Year guys

After a lacklustre and under productive 2015 I am starting afresh.

Although there were some highlights last year including Cleckheaton Literature Festival and the CLF Blog (which is still ongoing).  I hardly did any writing for myself and only wrote about two short stories,  a poem and first three chapters of a novel.  Plus I still was reading Wizards First Rule all year.

This year I'm going to push myself to write and read more.

I am determined to finish a first draft of a novel and write at least five short stories and maybe some freelance writing, including more blog posts.

I want to read alot more too.

So far this year I've written a poem for a competition to win a writing retreat in Iceland and to see the Northern Lights.

I've also read a quarter into the excellent blood soaked novel - The First Chronicles of Druss the Legend by David Gemmell.

I've also given the blog a quick makeover - hope you enjoy?

Well happy writing.

Neil
