Another 3k walked out of my fingers and into the [Foxtrot Mike Lima] WIP yesterday. It felt pretty good, gotta say. Very much enjoyed the writing. Woke up this morning and thought of something related to where everyone was when I stopped. That’s a pretty good sign. In fact it’s a very good sign.
This week I’m catching up with various members of my writing group. It’s been a long time coming and it looks like we are all ready for a catch-up. It’s a good thing. They are the people I miss from the bookshop days. The people that make me laugh, keep me sane, have very similar senses of humour to me. Very much looking forward to being semi-back in the world. 🙂
It’s good to have people around you that understand what it’s like in your head when you’re working on a novel (novella, short story, poem, whatever). Regular people don’t get it. Doesn’t seem to matter how much they try they don’t get how busy it is in our heads and how difficult it can be to put that down for any length of time.
Not a criticism at all, it’s simply a fact.
Writers are strange creatures with entire worlds in their heads and they can be thinking about all manner of atrocities with a smile on their faces … you would never know. 🙂
Anywho, my week is Doctor appointments and coffee with writer friends. So mostly fun then! My GP and I had a jolly good laugh today. Not unusual.
In other news it’s 4 sleeps until [Whiskey Tango Foxtrot] drops onto devices all over the show for those that have pre-ordered.
Here’s the link: [WTF] It’s universal so you can choose where to buy the book. (Very kind of me.)
And now, here’s Bon Jovi:

No doubt about it, Cat. Writer friends ‘get it’ when it comes to the ups and downs and craziness of writing. It’s very good to hear you’re making such progress on the next novel. It’s even better when the threads really start to come together…
It’s at the “wonder where this is going” stage. I love that! 🙂
