Andy McGee Summer is nearly over, so more of a winter list for me. More good crime fiction if I can find it. Any good ideas?
Currently reading Jane Harper's latest. The Dry and the Wet (Force of Nature), so now for the Cold (the Survivors). Always well written and entertaining.
Any suggestions? Always like an insiders view of the world. Someone who has experienced what they are writing about.
Andy McGee Never really been a problem for me, at least in the regular sense. It is more a problem of finding enough readers to make it feel worthwhile. A bit like an artist painting. Do you paint for yourself or to sell your works.
If anyone wants to read my novels, short stories or blogs I am happy to write and publish them.
I do like the answer though that Writer's block is when your imaginary friends won't talk to you anymore
Andy McGee It was a fast multiplying, plastic eating bacteria. Within moments his clothes were disappearing off his back as the fire alarm sounded briefly, before being silenced by the electrical fire created by the now uninsulated wires.
Andy McGee Write what you feel like writing, not what people tell you to write. Develop your own style.
Andy McGee Quantum Apple.
A scifi puzzle largely about zero time. Information can travel at the speed of light where according to Einstein, time ceases to exist. Some of the old favourite characters are revisited.
Andy McGee As a somewhat autistic scientist I find writing easier than speaking out. Trying to develop a style that appeals to people like myself. Not too flowery or descriptive but entertaining and educational. Not the usual obfuscation.
Andy McGee Working as a geophysicist in India. Intrigued by how much subsurface mapping told me about ancient events. New Scientist introduced me to Andrew Robinson and his well-written treatise on the Harappans, titled The Indus Lost Civilisations.
The rest is imagination. Following it up with a scifi version of the world in 100 years.
