The fourth and final book in the Highmoor series is still being reviewed, but I expect to be working on it again before the end of the summer. In the meantime, I am returning to the second book in the series, … Continue reading Another Lego creation: The Maredyg Village

Lego Cair Paravel
Hello readers! My analysis of the The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is taking longer than expected, so I’m pushing it back to next weekend. In the meantime, I’ll share this micro-scale Lego model I made of Cair Paravel, the castle from the first two Narnia books. For those that don’t know, I’m currently re-reading … Continue reading Lego Cair Paravel
The ever-shifting “cringe window”
Hello readers! Today’s post will be a little more introspective than usual. I’d like to discuss the way that creators perceive their own work (be they writers, artists, musicians, game developers, you name it). Specifically, I was wondering whether anyone else can relate to a concept that I have dubbed the “cringe window” – a … Continue reading The ever-shifting “cringe window”
Another Lego creation: Aberfenntag
Hello readers! I made this Lego model a while ago, so it’s about time that I added it to the collection. This is the dark, rainy city of Aberfenntag, which is a pivotal location in my fantasy novel, Highmoor – now available in physical form, if you hadn’t heard! For those of you that have … Continue reading Another Lego creation: Aberfenntag
New concept art: Amelia and Patrick
Hello readers! It’s a very short post from me this week, announcing a new addition to the “art” collection. In a break from tradition, this doodle contains not one but two characters, Amelia and Patrick. They’re from Highmoor, the first book in a high fantasy series that I’m currently writing, which is about to be … Continue reading New concept art: Amelia and Patrick
Updates and a Lego cathedral
Hello readers! Apologies for the recent lack of posts, but I have been very busy with work – not only of the “earn-money-to-stay-alive” variety, but of the “unpaid-but-career-imperative” variety. Thankfully, I’m still enjoying my somewhat quirky real-life job, but there can be no denying its erosional effect on my free time… I’m working on the … Continue reading Updates and a Lego cathedral
New concept art: Norbert
Hello readers! Just a short post this week. I’m adding another character doodle to the Highmoor series art collection. This is Norbert, one of the four protagonists, and for those of you that have read the books, I hope that this is somewhere close to your mental image of the character. It might sound odd … Continue reading New concept art: Norbert
Lego and updates
Hello readers! Just a short post from me this week. The boring part, which I’ll get out of the way as quickly as possible, regards Amazon bookstore logistics – specifically, the availability of books through Kindle Unlimited. The exciting part (hopefully) is a new micro-scale Lego model, which might look familiar to those of you … Continue reading Lego and updates
New concept art: Eddie
Hello readers! Just a short post from me today. I’m adding a new doodle to the art collection, and I’m also dropping the quotation marks from “collection” now that it contains five artworks (three characters and two maps – that’s a collection, right?). This is Eddie, one of the protagonists in my Highmoor series. If … Continue reading New concept art: Eddie
Concept art: The obsidian sword
Hello readers! This week I thought I would share some concept art from my Highmoor book series. For those of you that haven’t read it, this is Joseph, one of the four protagonists, and he’s wielding an obsidian sword that makes its first appearance in the second book. Obviously, this is no ordinary sword; its … Continue reading Concept art: The obsidian sword
