So far, 2017 has been a busy year.
The comic con in Paisley proved to be a success. Over 2,000 people came through the door. I managed to make a few sales, and spoke to plenty of people. It was great seeing so many people at the event, enjoying themselves, especially the cosplayers. I have heard talk that there are plans that they will be holding the cosplay again in 2018. I am planning on being at it next year.
The other night, I also took part in an open mic event for the Southside Fringe, in Glasgow. There was myself and a few other local writers performing at it, all of us reading our own work. There was a brilliant turn out, and such a high standard of work. So, a big thank you to the Southside Fringe for enviting me to take part in the open mic.
I am also going to be organising an event for the Weave Festival, in Paisley. It is going to involve Sma' Shot Day, a celebration of Paisley's weaving and radical heritage. I am in the process of writing a collection of flash fiction, celebrating Paisley, its history, and heritage. That will be taking place on the weekend on the 1st and 2nd July.
I also have to finishing writing, reviewing and editing my novel, Ravensrise. It is the first book in a fantasy trilogy. I am hoping to have it finished and ready for the end of this year. So, I do have a lot of work ahead of me this year.
Wish me luck.
