So book 2 is being proof read. They reached the climax and this is the feedback so far:
It's really exciting.
What is wrong with you?
You're a sick man.
Brains?! Brains?!
I'm a little scared of you.
It's really good.

Putting my flag up in the new digs for work and a colleague came to see what I was doing:
Them: It's not straight.
Me: it's not meant to be.

So I've finally finished the 3rd draft. It's 95208 words and 142 pages long. Far too short for my liking. There will need to be some additions made. Wish me luck.

A chance to do some edits on book two in the shade of a tree. Not too shabby.

So I had a haircut yesterday and now I've noticed I almost look exactly like my own cover art.

Good morning 5am #WritingCommunity the edits are coming along. I'm getting there slowly but hopefully the book will be a worthy follow up to Loose Ends.

I hate large chocolate bars and/boxes that have a serving suggestion on the packet. How dare you judge me?! If I need to eat the entire contents in one sitting perhaps you should keep your opinion to yourself @CadburyUK
