Spiritual Guidance in the form of prose poetry.

My first Channelling Experience.

I learned to channel because I seriously wanted to. Channelling in the Nineties was a big thing, at least in spiritual circles, and I had deep desire to learn. I wanted to know everything, and I knew there was a universe of knowledge out there, if only I knew how to access it. Part of…

Editorial Feedback.

This is the one thousand words I submitted to a book editor on his website. It is the second idea around the rewrite/new book, based on old ideas. "The Gift of Light." To the inhabitants of Uxton, Bill’s life appeared to be perfect. He had a wonderful job; a lovely house in the right part…

Plotting Channelled Fiction.

I recently had the first thousand words of the rewrite of the channelled book Homecoming, now renamed, reviewed by an editor who offered a free one thousand word edit of the first new chapter. I had rewritten it a couple of times and then completely changed it, adding a new character who wasn't in the…

How Fiction can be a Sign-Post.

One of my favourite childhood writers was Enid Blyton. As a 'sixties' child, growing up in a small town in Southern Ireland, reading her books kept me sane. They were the only books that felt real to me and which allowed me to block out the emotional undercurrents of my everyday life. When I moved…

Overcoming Fears.

I have notebooks filled with stories, chapters of different books, and prose poetry. Nearly twenty years’ worth, in fact. When I received my first fiction chapters concerning the spiritual development of two young men at the beginning of the British Bronze age, I was happily transcribing them when we moved back to Ireland to do…

Channelled, or Soul-Inspired Writing.

After years of receiving, what I called 'channelled writing' - for want of a different name - I only now understand how it works and what we can do with it. Writing fiction which has come from another source, a non-physical source, involves trust, Sometimes it also needs training and sometimes if you are lucky,…

Back on Track

After weeks of stalled progress, my brain can think again, and I have lots of time to write. I don't know about you, but when I go through a significant healing period, I usually come out the other side with a fresher mind and with many new ideas. It's as if a complete layer of…

Tidal Waves…

I am trying to write my next chapter, I really am. But it’s such a struggle. Books on writing, writers on writing, tell you that you need a writing routine, that no matter what, you just need to put down a few words, create a few sentences, EVERY DAY. So long as you are doing…

Male Characters.

For years now I have been struggling to understand why the principal characters in the books I write are predominantly male. Men going through initiatic experiences, men struggling to find their path, men fighting to liberate themselves, etc. I have been a feminist all my life. I've struggled with domestic violence and sexual abuse. I've…
