  • About

    Victoria is a full-time scientist by day and part-time writer by night. She writes Magical Realism, Dystopian Fiction and Horror, and sometimes a 'Novel In A Day'.

    When she finds time away from her PhD, she features photo blogging on Mondays, writing-related topics on Wednesdays, science-related posts on Fridays and whatever she feels like writing about on the days between.

  • My First Novel

    The Clarion Write-a-Thon 2011 has ended. During the challenge I have written 20,749 words on my first novel.

    I have learnt a lot. One of those things is that I need to change my point of view and restruc- ture the plot.

    This project is currently on hold, but I am very confident I will one day finish what I started.
    ----------------------------------------------------
    My current progress
