IWSG: Rereading Early Work

It's the first Wednesday of the month and so it’s time for the Insecure Writer’s Support Group (IWSG) blog hop! In an IWSG post, we writers bring our writing challenges and problems out into the open to share with each other and try to offer solutions. Because my day has been so time-crunched, I'm going to just jump right into the topics and keep the post short. February 4 question - Many writers have written about the experience of rereading their work years later. Have you reread any of your early works? What was that experience like for you? I' ve reread very little of my early works, published or unpublished. The former I don't typically reread because I want to get on to writing the next story or book. The latter I don't read because it's so bad that I would get sickened by the poor writing and even the too-far-out-there story ideas. Most of my early unpublished work is buried away somewhere in my parents house. However, if I were to  somehow  inevitably...

'Bad Apps' Status; Sneak-Peek of Book-To-Movies Coming in 2026

Credit: Pixabay Not counting the monthly IWSG blog hop  post (in which the next one will be coming up this Wednesday), this is the first post of the new year here at A Far Out Fantastic Site! I hope everybody's having a good start to 2026. I have. Most of my beta readers have sent me their comments for " Bad Apps ", in which I'm currently revising based on that feedback. I've also already started sketching concepts for the book's cover illustration. Below you’ll find out who will get a sneak peek at the book’s cover, and who will get a sneak peek of something else here at A Far Out Fantastic Site. So, keep on readin’!  Who Gets a Sneak Peek at the ‘Bad Apps’ Book Cover? When the cover to “Bad Apps” is finalised, the beta readers who sent me their comments will be the few to get a sneak peek at it before the official reveal! That's because they will be receiving a free downloadable copy of it for their hard work! For those of you who did not volunteer to be...

IWSG: Writing Plans for 2026

It's the first Wednesday of the month and this new year of 2026! That means it’s time for the first monthly Insecure Writer’s Support Group (IWSG) blog hop of the year!  In an IWSG post, we writers bring our writing challenges and problems out into the open to share with each other and try to offer solutions. I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday season! I have, although its been a busy one, and so I've had to slow down on the writing projects some but not too much. I'm just now getting back into the routine and that includes finishing up the final touches on my upcoming book of short fiction, "Bad Apps", and that's making way for myself to return to a monthly series here at A Far Out Fantastic Site! So, keep reading to find out the details! The optional IWSG question for January has been perfect timing for me! The question: Is there anything in your writing plans for 2026 that you are going to do that you couldn't get done in 2025? Yes, two things. F...
