I wrote 1714 words this week, a surprising amount of which centred around a flask of water. Progress is being made, despite the pre-Christmas chaos! #writeeveryday

I'm working on a new book, so it's time to resurrect the accountability posts! I #amwriting - this week I wrote on 6 days out of 7 (so almost #writeeveryday), for a total of 2565 words (which is comfortably more than #200wordsaday). All of them were set on-board a... spaceship!

Enlightenment - the 4th book in the Entanglement series - is out today!

If you've been with Estrel since the napkin, since the explosion, since "Find Mouse" - this is where his story comes together. The culmination of Estrel's journey. The end of Phase I.

I wrote 2282 words today, which I'm pretty darned pleased with. We meet a familiar character earlier than we've even known them before and discover something about their motivations #amwriting #writeeveryday #200wordsaday

Had a very nice couple of hours yesterday with Number Two son at Basildon comicon. He came home happy with toys, posters and key rings, I came home happier with new books by @markstay.bsky.social and @philoddy.com, who both had stalls at the venue.
