November's Writing Progress

I wrote about 6,000 words of The Last Dragonrider this month, so it now stands at about 118,000 words. I think it's obvious by now that I'm not going to achieve the goal I set in January of having it finished by the end of the year. Mostly, I'll blame the fact that I've been very busy at work with a lot of stuff dictated by company policy that I don't think benefits our customers.

I had a short article published by Readers' Magnet, about The Accidental Dragonrider. You can read it here.

I joined Bluesky, where all the cool kids seem to be these days. I'm sjpemb.bsky.social. I'm not doing much there at the moment - I just wanted to be sure of getting my preferred username.

There's a new video on my YouTube channel, of me performing The Last Story at Urban Arts in St Annes. It's noteworthy because I was able to do it from memory, which let me engage with the audience a bit more than I usually do. See if you can spot the mistake that I almost managed to cover up!
