In honour of NaNoWriMo, let’s take a look at one of those topics that writers tend to Google far too much – disposing of a dead body.

Amyraldism in the group Christian Writings: 7 years, 9 months agoAmyraldism is a word I bumped into for the first time right at the end of October 2017. If I do a poor job of defining it, please forgive me.

Not sure what your hosting platform is, but don’t the log files get recycled? (not sure what the technical term is). Normally log files would be gzipped after a period of time, or when they reach a certain size, […]

Right in the middle of NaNoWriMo, the server got the hiccups.

The Fantastic Site of Lord Matt, Super Geek in the group Matthew D. Brown (Author) 7 years, 9 months agoIn “that story with a cat in it” I make reference to some pretty silly sounding science. The funny thing is that most of the wild-sounding science is no-where near […]

Matthew Brown commented on the post, Why we need to write fewer white male protagonists, on the site Thanet Creative 7 years, 9 months ago
