September 23, 2020 / E.J. Robison / Leave a comment

The final part in a series of short stories that leads up to the complete unveiling of my new project! Shera Nox didn't rush into deductions and action. Instead, she took a moment to survey the situation. Kr’zani stood closest to her, his head bowed in reverence.

Project Pea and the Writing Process

September 3, 2020 / E.J. Robison / Leave a comment

I have written many novels in my life. No really, I have! The only thing is that I'm never satisfied enough with how they turn out to actually do anything with them.

How Do I Create Good Characters?

August 25, 2020August 23, 2020 / E.J. Robison / Leave a comment

The first thing you need to know up front is that it's not easy to create good characters. It takes tons … Continue reading How Do I Create Good Characters?

The Power of Kindness

August 23, 2020August 23, 2020 / E.J. Robison / 3 Comments

Have you ever truly considered the raw power of kindness? Kindness is not something that we traditionally view as "powerful," but just think about it for a second. The last time someone complimented you offhand, didn't it make your whole day just a little better? Haven't you felt your mood instantly lift when someone goes … Continue reading The Power of Kindness

The Game Is On

Part III in a series of short stories that leads up to the complete unveiling of my new project! Adan Stone met Kr’zani’s glare with a smile. He knew the dog didn’t like him, but one day he’d see that his distrust was completely unwarranted.  “If I may,” Kr’zani said, sounding as if he resented … Continue reading The Game Is On

Part II in a series of short stories that leads up to the complete unveiling of my new project! Kr’zani kept his nose on alert as he walked out of the engine room. Something wasn't quite right.

Agatha Christie

July 27, 2020 / E.J. Robison / Leave a comment

I've always felt that as a writer, it's so important to read good books. I mean, I love to read anyway, but I really like to find unique authors that offer a different perspective because they, in turn, can give me new ideas about what I'm writing. A new favourite author I discovered years ago … Continue reading Agatha Christie
