Black Library kindly linked to my review of The Gildar Rift by Sarah Cawkwell – so thanks for that, and I hope everyone who came along to have a look liked what they saw.
I was flicking through old blog posts, and realised I wrote that I was surprised it was May already.
Well, now its November, and my surprise has turned into mild shock. I have absolutely no idea where the last ten months have gone! Not to worry, plenty more coming along.
Course, last weekend the clocks went back, plunging us into darkness for the sake of a few scant moments of daylight in the morning. Today it got light at 7am and was pitch black by 5. Winter sucks, basically.
I have been at work all week, so writing output has been minimal, but hopefully next week I’ll get back on track. I have 20k or so words to go, and I have finally figured out the path for my heroine to take that will bring her up to the (hopefully) climatic ending. So I’m pretty pleased about that, and it is entirely conceivable that I will get that done by Christmas, freeing me up for a few months editing in time for my speculative completion date in March. Its been a fascinating journey, and with luck the lessons I have learnt from writing this one will make the next one alot smoother (and yes, I already have an idea for that)
Hopefully I will find time to blog about those issues, and how I have managed to deal with them.
Meanwhile, this song and video are oddly entrancing.
