Success after a fashion

by Bernard Davis February 13, 2018 No Comments

The first draft of the prequel is now complete.  The final word count was about 31k.  And today I managed over 6k words which is rather more than I intended to do in one day but when the mood strikes you, you have to go with it. Now I’m into editing and some minor re-writing.  […]

Getting closer?

by Bernard Davis February 13, 2018 No Comments

Do we get closer to the end as we write more?  I’ve done another 1500 words this morning and had hoped that I’d be almost done with the first draft by now.  Yet I could go on, and on, and on… and still not arrive at an ending. I still need to read and edit […]

A prequel or a saga?

by Bernard Davis February 11, 2018 No Comments

So today I managed around 5k words.  I was out this evening or it might have been more! The big battle scene isn’t quite as big. But I left an opening for a sequel to the prequel!  So I guess that will have to do. The first draft should be done tomorrow or the day […]

Progress is being made

by Bernard Davis February 10, 2018 No Comments

Well my first thought was about 15k words as a prequel.  I reached that with ‘just the big battle scene to craft’ so I extended the expectation to 20k words.  I just passed 20k this evening and still feel that over half the scene is still to come.  Maybe 25-30k words in the first draft. […]

What a change

by Bernard Davis February 8, 2018 No Comments

So, we had snow on Tuesday, glorious sunshine on Wednesday and today it’s pouring with rain.  I guess we don’t have a climate, just weather and lots of it. Not going to get many words added today, been out during the day at art class, and out during the evening volunteering at the Lowther, our […]

Beautiful Sunshine

by Bernard Davis February 7, 2018 No Comments

Glorious day today, wall to wall sunshine.  Met some people just back from a week in Porta Ventura, it seems they had horrendous weather every day for a week.  Gale force winds and driving rain.  We had a few hours of snow fall yesterday, and the most woderful sunshine today.  It’s cold, but hey! it’s […]

A Snowy Day in Lancs.

by Bernard Davis February 6, 2018 No Comments

I saw that Moscow had the worst snowfall for 100 years this week.  A month’s fall in two days.  i can sympathise with them, we had what might have been our worst snow fall for 100 years today.  it snowed for nearly three hours.  You could almost see the white on the lawn. Fortunately we […]

Writing Today

by Bernard Davis February 5, 2018 No Comments

Put together 2000 words this morning then had to go and collect daughter from hospital after an operation, she’s fine, no ill effects at the moment. I was frankly surprised to get so much done in the time I had. This puts the publish date as probably some time next week I’m still casting around […]

Writing Today

by Bernard Davis February 4, 2018 No Comments

Today I’ve done over 1800 words for ‘Beginnings’.  Takes the total up towards 10k which means its about two thirds done.  Target for this prequel is in the region of 15k.  I still need to think of a better title though. I don’t actually like short stories, but this one is intended as a teaser […]

New Arrival

by Bernard Davis February 4, 2018 No Comments

Amazon has just delivered the first ‘good’ copy of Electra.  It’s properly formatted now and looks much better than the last two. I only ordered it yesterday so its been printed and delivered in just about twenty four hours.  Pretty remarkable
