Been writing for a few years now, still not very happy with the quality of my work, but maybe here I can get a little advise on my work :P
Interested in SF and Fantasy mainly, but also have an interest in games development so watch this space :P LMAO
I've written 3 books, neither have been published, nor have I tried to get them published. (Yes, they are that bad!)I think they were just an excersize to see if I could do them.
I'm also working on another 2, and hoping to get them published. (You would not believe the work gone into planning the one I haven't posted here (or anywhere else for that matter :P )
I'm Irish, so I, alegedly, have that unique gaelic sense of humour, not too sure about that. Feel free to read and review my work, I really need the reviews.

Oh, about reviews, please, please; if you are going to review my work, review each chapter at a time, not a chapter here or a chapter there. I need to know what you think of each chapter, so I can make alterations and so on.

Book 1 of The Paladin is finally complete, and I have to say thank you to all who have reviewed so far, but in particular Jessica who must have gone through hell reading my material. Thank you all soooooooo much.

Well as you might have noticed, Book 2 of the Paladin is being worked on as we speak. Yay for me.

Expect the 1st upload some time in early January.

Yeah, I know ... I haven't updated in a long time ... I've been ... busy, but planning to get back to it appologies to all. Oh, and that reminds me ... and I have to laugh at this ... can someone please give the "D&D Fan" who reviewed chapter 1 a medal for making my day and cheering me up ... LMAO ... That is the funniest review I've ever read ... although thinking about it ... if I didn't laugh I might have to kill him or something for demeaning my work. Anyway .. watch this space.

Right. I've managed to pull the finger out ... so to speak. I'm back and intend to finsh all projects started here. So here's how my various projects stand.

The Paladin Book 1(1st draft): Complete - Expect some major revision at a later date.

The Paladin Book 2(1st draft): On hold - Clearly it'd be pointless to continue until after I have reworked part 1

The Guardian Book 1: In progress - Yes it's back. I've reworked it all so while there are some similarities, there are more differences. More below.

The Vampire Hunter: Complete.

My apologies again for being absent for so long. It's been a bit of a rollercoaster ride lots of highs but more lows. College has been completed and am back working full time. I decided to get back to working the Guardian, as it is one of my oldest projects and I've always felt that if I could get it finished, then I could finish anything. Anyway, I've completely reworked what I had done and set the begining much in the timeline than the original, so we don't start with the killing of the Prince of Jahadeeb. I start it instead with the events that led up to that event. At the moment, I'm lacking an introduction for it, so it's lacking a hook, as the 1st chapter is a little weighty, but hopefully this won't deter the devoted readers and writers here. WARNING I've increased the average length of my chapters from 3000 to 4000 words plus. I'm aiming for an a complete total of 200,000 words for this project, at least as a start, so I hope you'll come along for the ride.
