Inkfeather Pages is where I share the messier, more honest side of writing life — drafting, revising, the odd garden-fatigued Sunday, and everything in between. Expect notes from the desk, behind-the-scenes glimpses of works in progress, and the occasional ramble about what it actually takes to finish a novel.
Jemma Weir is a Scottish indie author of paranormal romance and urban fantasy with bite: magic is messy, love is fierce, and family means everything. Fantasy was her first love. Now she writes the kind of stories she always wanted to read — gritty, heartfelt, and just a little unhinged.
My hosting renewal was up, and instead of just clicking “renew,” I finally did the thing I’d been circling for years: rebuilt the site properly. Here’s what I learned along the way — the good, the messy, and the parts that quietly went wrong in the background.
With Book 1 now out in the world, I’m excited to share that Book 2 — Broken Sight — is officially ready for beta readers. This story has been simmering away behind the scenes, and now that the draft is complete, it’s time to bring in fresh eyes before final edits begin. If you’ve been waiting to dive back into Edinburgh’s shadows, this is your chance to get an early look at what comes next.
This weekend I did something I never thought I’d have the nerve to try—wild swimming in water that hovered around 9 degrees. And not just once, but twice. I joined Alice from Swim Wild and half a dozen other women at Loch Insh for a weekend of cold water dips and creative writing workshops, and I’m still buzzing from the experience. I’ll be honest: the first swim nearly broke me. We started at the Loch
December is upon us, and as I prepare to close out the year, I find myself in the midst of an exciting whirlwind—getting ready to move house and restarting work on my Seer series. Embracing Change and Celebration. Purging and Packing ???? Early next year I’ll be packing up and moving house! It has given me a fantastic opportunity to declutter, and I’ve embarked on a mission to purge the house of things I don’t
Below I’m going to breakdown of what I watched, read and played in 2022. I’ve never tracked anything except what I’ve read in the past, but when I picked Balance as my word of the year, I wanted to get a visual of how much time I spent having fun, and doing things unrelated to writing. The results are fascinating, and it’s going to be interesting to see how it compares to 2023. Books Read
So, full disclosure, I didn’t quite make it through all my Christmas movies 2022 watch list. Polar express and it’s a wonderful life and not on streaming channels and I did not look soon enough to find when they were on the TV. So I will keep my eyes out for them during the year and try to catch them then. Violent Night and Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas special were my favorites by far,
Christmas movies for 2022 are locked and loaded – though maybe i should have double checked where I will be watching them… But I am sure I will find them somewhere. Thank you to everyone who clearly agreed with me that Die Hard is a Christmas movie lol! I have decided to watch it, plus Polar express, and iI’s AWonderful Life, neither of which I have seen. The last two are new out this year,
I’m looking for some help. What is your favorite Christmas movie? Now NaNoWriMo and all my decorating is done (yay to both) I’m looking for my Christmas Spirit, which sadly is very lacking this year. Does anyone have recommendations for Christmas movies so I can make a top 5 watch list to help me get in the mood before Christmas? If I can make a list of ones I’ve not seen before, even better, but
The new website went live today! I did new colours, branding and logo and it has turned out epic. Or at least I think it has. I especially love the header and the coloured logo! New Logos and backgrounds I built this Logo inside Canava – with the pro licence – and it amazed me at how easy it was. Initially, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to have a black or white background on the website,
My Goals for 2021 were a bit of a washout, except for writing. That was the one area I built a regular habit, and tracked great progress….
