No I am not talking about my stories although that is true as well. I am talking about the weather. Here in UK we are in the middle of a heatwave and having a particularly fluffy dog means I need to be aware of this kind of thing. Next weeks temperatures are meant to get … Continue reading It’s Hot But It’s Only Getting Hotter

FFTBR Chapter 3
For previous chapters the full story so far is available here:https://cereliawolf.com/875-2/ The jetlag was still bad when I woke up the next morning but a shower, a bagel and a cup of coffee later I felt almost human. My dad drove me to the coffee shop shortly after 6am. He spent the next hour reminding … Continue reading FFTBR Chapter 3
FFTBR Chapter 2
To read the first chapter head to the book page: https://cereliawolf.com/875-2/ I’ve worked my one months notice, packed my bags and I was now on the plane on my way to LAX.

FFTBR Chapter 1
I opened the door to our home and I knew instantly that something was wrong. Mark’s jacket wasn’t on the stand by the door and none of his shoes were in the hallway. I took off my own jacket and shoes, putting them in their usual place but I knew that something wasn’t quite right. … Continue reading FFTBR Chapter 1
I’m Back
I took a month away from social media (and pretty much everything else) to focus on writing in NaNoWriMo. For those of you that don't know what that is, it is a challenge where you try to write 50,000 words towards a novel in one month. I thought that by removing the distractions of social … Continue reading I’m Back

Before you know it you are feeling miserable and having the … Continue reading Wednesday 5th May 2021

I think I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with editing. I love to remake my story into something better but I hate spending hours staring at the same sentence wondering if this really is the best way of getting my point across. I also have to solve all the problem parts that I … Continue reading Monday 3rd May 2021

I can't help but wonder why it always seems to be the case that when you take time off your day job to focus on writing things happen to prevent this. Yesterday we had to take the dog to the vets, he is fine but he has been getting some gunk in his eyes which … Continue reading Thursday 29th April 2021
Saturday 24th April 2021
It was a study week for me this last week and I always under estimate how much these weeks take out of me. On paper it doesn't look too bad, it is only six hours of studying after all. However, I still feel the need to keep any eye on work so that I don't … Continue reading Saturday 24th April 2021
