You may have noticed that for the past year or so I haven’t been writing as much. In fact I decided to take a little break as I had started to fall out of love with the whole process (I know – shock, horror!!) I would like to report that I have since become a multi-millionairess…
Writing is often such a sedentary occupation. And it’s not just writing, but any job that requires you to sit staring at your screen for X number of hours a day, staring at a bright screen and tapping little square keys with letters and numerals on them. People, our bodies were not made for this. But…
The British people are now languishing in a kind of no man’s land after the in/pot referendum. Until Article 50 is submitted (that is, if it ever is), uncertainty is the order of the day. The result is that folks are now asking themselves what life is going to look like in a post-Brexit Britain.…
This Saturday I am sat here feeling a little bit smug and also a little excited. I am smug because I am way ahead in my schedule for my first draft of Crime and Punishment in Medieval England – an Easy Guidebook For Writers and Readers of Historical Fiction and excited because I have rediscovered enjoying…
I’m feeling rather excited lately. Add to that inspired, clear-headed, motivated and… well, you get the picture. But why? After so long of muddling along with my writing and trying to juggle it with other ways of making money (and failing), I’ve seen the light at the end of the tunnel! Frustrated at doing so…

Now I shall tell you why it happened, and, more importantly, the conclusion. Why? Basically I fell…
It’s been a tough old six months for my writing. I broke up with it. Then, unsure, I decided on a trial reconciliation, broke up again, stayed depressed on the sofa, became addicted to Facebook, games and morning TV and just generally bummed around feeling bad about myself. Writing had been a part of my…
Sounds like a question for quantum physics, doesn’t it? But I can assure you that I am wholly unqualified to talk about string theory or Schrödinger’s’ Cat, and I’m sure that you’re pretty relieved about that too! So what am I talking about? Novels. How long should it take to write one. I have lately…
Jules Frusher has been writing for over thirty years. In that time she has ghost-written 12 mainstream published books, had five more commissioned, and has self-published three of her own. She has also completed several editing and proofreading projects and helped other writers to reach their full potential. Her rather eclectic subject passions are history (especially medieval), 'guns 'n' mayhem', nature, and myth and magic - not necessarily in that order!
