How many years do you think it takes to learn your craft as a writer? #WritingCommunity

Of all the characters you've created, do you have a favourite? #WritingCommunity

THE QUEEN OF VORN IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE ORDER! Ok, I get its not out for 9 months, but I figured I might as well get it out there, what have I got to lose? amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DCZLXLMC/…

When you read one of your early drafts and decide, actually, some of this shit is half decent! #writerslife

Do you think it's possible to include too much dialogue in your story? Or do you think a dialogue driven narrative is a good method of storytelling? #WritingCommunity

OMG this book is crap. And yes, I did write it... Two years ago. I've grown so much as a writer since then, hopefully now, when I re-write it, I will make it awesome. Wish me luck! #writerslife

I wish I had real life writer friends! Like proper humans, who live nearby. And before you start, I'm not joining any local writer groups. Don't have time in my hectic life. I just want friends with absolutely no effort on my part, is that too much to ask? 😂

1,400 words into my re-write of The King of Vorn. Just read it back. Compared to the original? It's like version 1 was written by some half-wit school kid. It's 2 years since I wrote V1. How much have you grown as a writer in that time? #WritingCommunity

I have 2 pre-orders! 🍾 The Queen of Vorn isn't out until May, so at this rate: 😁 Happy Charlotte

What are your thoughts on maps? I kinda feel they're essential in fantasy books. When there isn't one, my head wants to explode and my mouth wants to scream "Give me a map!" Yes, Joe Abercrombie, I'm looking at you!

How many self-published novels have you read? How do you think they compare to trad-published books? #readingcommunity #books #askreaders

Who inspired you to start writing? #writingcommunity

Which book kicked off your love of reading your favourite genre? For me it was The Hobbit. It was a class reader when I was at primary school. Been a sucker for fantasy ever since. #readingcommunity #books

Three years, over one million words, £10,000, more hours than I can count. 6 books drafted, some re-written, some, edited, edited, then edited again. The Queen of Vorn is book 1 in the Gallantrian Legacy. Will you help me turn my blood, sweat and tears into success?

Does anyone else literally, take their laptop everywhere? #writerslife

Just been away camping for a few days. Hardly any signal. No power. Phone turned off most of the time. OMG, my anxiety vanished! Back to reality now and the ache in the gut returns. (My laptop has a long battery life, in case u were wondering about my earlier post)

How do you write your novel? Do you write sequentially? Do you write scenes as they appear in your head, even if they don't take place until later? If your story is multiple POV, do you write each POV in turn then mix up your chapters at the end? #writingcommunity

Folding a corner to keep your page - yes or no? #books

Does anyone else end up writing when they should be doing other things? Like the laundry or cleaning or their job 😂? #writerslife
