Bits & Bobs & Recovery

Storyland on RTE Hope you've all headed over to watch the first webisode of Victory and of course VOTE! (Apparently you need to do this in Internet Explorer). From Tumblr: "Romance novels are feminist documents. They're written almost exclusively by women, for women, and are concerned with women: their relations in family, love and marriage, [...]

Busy busy busy

Still in the writing cave. Peering out from time to time with at confused, "there's a world out there" blinking gaze. I'm a bit over half way through draft zero having got lots done this Sunday thanks to a rugby game which entertained everyone in the house, except for the last five minutes when they [...]

Ticking over & the Tyranny of Story

Well, recovery is one thing, but the website is all recovered from the nasty hacking (that was my most unfun thing possibly forever and totally ruined my watching of Endeavour, not to mention a couple weeks afterwards) and I've been something of a naughty author not updating my blog very much. Alternately, I've been a [...]

Website woes continue

Hi all

there are still problems with my website, unfortunately. At the moment I'm not entirely certain when it will be back up and running. In the meantime if anyone is looking for me I'm on twitter @RFLong most frequently. I also have a new Tumblr account RFLong.tumblr.com and I still have my livejournal rflong.livejournal.com

I'll be posting from them for the moment.

Fingers crossed it gets sorted out soon! I'm having withdrawals!

Recovery mode

Well, that was horrid. My website (along with a large number of others) was hacked yesterday. We're just about back to normal now thanks to my hosting people and their very hard work. My blog is still a little screwy, but hopefully I'll have that back in action soon as well. So lucky not to [...]

2011 – the year of edits

This time last year we were buried in snow, and edits. This year Christmas day was something like 20 degrees warmer than last years and the holiday has in general been a bit more rushed and fraught, and oddly enough, ill. Tummy bugs and the head cold from hell forced us to hibernate almost as [...]

The Wolf's Destiny, an excerpt for the holidays

Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday. As a bit of a Christmas present, and perhaps for some post breakfast/lunch/dinner reading, here's the opening of The Wolf's Destiny, book three of A Tale of the Holtlands. In The Wolf's Sister, Jeren and Shan met when she fled her brother Gilliad's realm, fearing his growing insanity. [...]
