Hello.
This is Mike O'Shakespeare's blog where he will attempt to deconstruct novels, short stories and memoirs for what makes them tick from a creative writing point of view. A reading diary of sorts it will be an occasional affair and the entries will vary in length as the fancy takes him. Sometimes there might be only one thing that he feels like saying about a book, maybe some stylistic tick that helped him solve a problem in his own writing. Other times he will write loads and loads! We'll see.
To introduce Mike here are a couple of his own pieces of work that you may want to read to see if he is worth taking the trip with (spoiler alert - these links contain Mike's real name!).
Coming soon! Mike's attempt to pick the bones out of 'Brooklyn' by Colm Toibin.
