About Writing

Phew, it's been a while since I posted hasn't it! I didn't think it was this long. Anyway i thought I'd fill you in on...some writing! Phoar that makes a change. Yes it's laborious and it's taken ages but Gull Cove Book2 is in the final stages of another rewrite. Why? Because I was very unhappy with it before. Now? Now I'm really happy...with most of it. I'll just give it a final lick of polish and it'll back to everyone's favourite job...publisher hunting, and agent hunting...Sigh. I'd just like you to read it really. I'm just glad I've taken that extra time to rewrite it. I'm sure the characters, the story, even the blancmange are better! In other writing news I've got enough Gull Cove ideas to keep me writing for years to come and there are all sorts of other things kicking about that will be finished soon. And then I can rewrite them too. Yes it's laborious and takes ages, but it's worth it to make the final product better! I finished one recently, if I could just rewrite that too. So much writing, so little time...so many ants in my pants. No wonder Tolkien had so much publsihed posthumosly - he wouldn't have let it out whilst he was alive! :-)
