July's Writing Progress

The Last Dragonrider is finally above 100,000 words. That's only 1,500 words past where it was last month, mainly because I've rewritten a lot of existing scenes to fit my new outline. I started tracking the number of comments in the manuscript (notes to myself that tell me to change something or double-check something). At the start of July, I had 409, and I now have 265, so that's good.

At the start of the month, we took a holiday to Borehamwood, where we used to live. It rained a lot, and both of us were ill, but we managed to meet up with some friends, and I visited a couple of museums that I hadn't seen before (the Florence Nightingale museum and the de Havilland museum).

My next public event is now only a week away. I'll be reading from my books and talking about my creative process. It'll be at Urban Arts in St Annes, Lancashire, on Wednesday 7th August from 6pm to 9pm. Admission is free, but donations to help with the venue's running costs are welcome.
