Pagans x Strike
After a celebrity author builds a Stonehenge replica, genteel English towns descend into tribalism and paganism. As two local writers seek the cause of increasingly violent religious fervour, the city of St Albans is rocked by a bloody human sacrifice.

Pagans x Strike
When a celebrity author teases his novel by building a Stonehenge replica, waves of fervent paganism grip the UK. As the winter equinox approaches - a time of bloody ancient rites - two writers must find out what’s causing it, before the sacrifices begin.

D29. None really. There's some violence, a couple of shootings, some non-graphic references to torture, but nothing that would require any kind of warning. It's all pretty standard spy-thriller stuff to be honest.

D27. The MC goes to hospital for stitches after receiving a wrench to the head. Later on, he puts two former colleagues in hospital (because they're hunting him), with a gunshot wound and concussion respectively.

D25. During the first draft it had me tied me up in knots. I was banging my head against the desk, screaming "I'll never write time travel again!" Keeping multiple characters' timelines straight was bloody exhausting.

When coming back to the manuscript for the eighth revision, after some considerable time away from it, I was surprised how easy it was to cut 18K words without eliminating anything except bad/superfluous writing.

In the process of cutting words, taking a ton of 'good writing' advice on board, and polishing of the MS, I feel like I eliminated some observations and turns of phrase that would be considered 'voicey'. Humbug.

D23. Nothing stands out particularly, but I sometimes read snatches of the story and think 'did I really write that?' This is after 8 revisions, mind. If I read draft one again, I know I would cringe my way through it.

D19. The MC's goal is convincing the British Foreign Secretary to call off a time travel demonstration. Minister's goal is ensuring it goes ahead at any cost. Shenanigans ensue. Needless to say, the MC comes off worst.
