JEREMY IS CURRENTLY LIVING IN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA WITH HIS WIFE HEATHER, AND THEIR TWO CATS, NAVI AND THOR.

Jeremy’s first foray into the writing world was during a writing competition called NaNoWriMo, where the goal is to write a certain number of words in the month of November.

After completing the novel he started, and some extensive rewrites, he felt it was worthy of publishing and self-published his first novel, Blackbeard’s Freedom in September, 2012.

After writing over ten books under two names, his passion for writing hasn’t wavered over the years, and hopes to one day make it his primary career ...more

How do you deal with writer’s block?

Jeremy McLean I try to keep with a daily, weekly, and monthly word count, and stick with them.

If I don't make the daily goal, I try to make up for it with the weekly, and so on. Just keep writing and if a particular part isn't up to snuff, come back to it later and you'll probably have a solution.

If I'm stuck at a particular moment in the story where I don't know what to do with the characters, I ponder on it and it alone. This can take practice to focus on something, but just sitting down and thinking over a problem in your head, thinking "what would my characters do here?" helps.

I also have friends who are good at bouncing ideas off of, and I'm not at all ashamed to admit that several ideas were collaborative, and I wouldn't have been able to come up with them on my own.

If you have writers block, talk with other creative people, and they may be able to help you out of it, remember your fans are waiting to be inspired by you, and stick to your goals no matter what. Just write, get past the bad stuff, and come back and fix it later.(less)

I Need a New Computer

I don't need one right away, but it would be nice.

Rendering animation and video almost requires an excellent computer because it takes up so much processing power to do. It took my computer over 5 hours to make a 45 minute video file, and it was the only thing it could do while it was working on it as well. I got by with minor tasks in between, but basically my work was halted during this time. I' Read more of this blog post »
