    I thought this would take more time, but living in the 21st century definitely has its perks! Same day as I was writing about the kindle publishing, I can also add the possibility of buying the paperback version! Once again, you can still read the whole book on my webpage (click here). So what is…

    I am so excited to say that my very first book Lambda has been accepted for publishing on Amazon (kindle edition), paperback hopefully soon! You are still absolutely welcome to read it on my webpage HERE. The kindle edition has the added cover which I made and is available on Amazon for $3 (or equivalent…

    Several life changes later, here I am, ready to let this piece of work in the World! There’s a lot of stuff that I learned writing it and over the past month or so I edited some inconsistencies out, hopefully making the whole story more cohesive. So what next? First of all, if you want…

    As I kept adding various reviews and chapters to the book I realized two really important things. One was that I wanted to simplify the scoring and the reviews themselves and the other was that the Menus were getting bulkier and harder to navigate (even on a PC, let alone on the mobile site). So…

    Before I get into the topic of this blog post, just a quick update. For the past several weeks I’ve been mostly focussing on reading through my first draft and writing a summary so that I get a better idea on how to approach the second draft. I am now at the end of reading…

    This week I have been completely focussed on editing my book. Up to this point, everything has remained more or less the same (hence the title of the blog post), with some minor changes and polishes. But the overall story so far has not changed in the least. Having said that, from this point onwards…

    This week I wrote a review of a movie that I’ve watched, called 45 Years, but mostly focussed on editing my first novel Lambda. So far that consisted of minor edits and fixing typos, because I am happy with how the first few chapters turned out. As I go through the rest of the book, there…

    This week I’ve been busy formatting the Reviews pages, adding two new categories for Board Games and Movies and Series. I reviewed some stuff that I watched or played recently. Having said that, I will avoid reviewing content that I saw or played too long ago to the point where I only just vaguely remember what it was about.…

    So this week I have taken a break from my finished novel Lambda (this page now contains an index of all the chapters). I will likely be returning to editing it in a week or so (that is some advice I read somewhere – don’t remember exactly who said it – once a story is finished,…

    I started with the idea of this book – Lambda – in the beginning of 2014. Four years later and I have finally completed my first draft! Though to be fair, most of it was written in 2017/2018, after I got married to an amazing woman, Claire, and moved to the U.S. I do realise…
