In the summer of 2014, as I wrote and published weekly installments of Gooseberry on Goodreads (not exactly a sequel to Wilkie Collins’s The Moonstone but more of a spin-off), I recorded my thoughts and feelings on the whole creative process here. Would I manage to pull it off, or would the project crash and burn? Come and share the traumas and the triumphs of writing a novel on the hoof.

Week 18
Tomorrow, October 1st, sees Gooseberry’s cover reveal. You can catch it on the recently launched Gooseberry Facebook Page. Do click on the link to have a look. If you’re loving John Thomson’s wonderful Victorian images that populate these posts, you’ll LOVE the video, I promise.
The final chapter goes up on Goodreads next week. It feels like it’s been a long, long haul, but in reality it’s only been four months.
Till next week,
Michael
