It’s one hundred days until my book comes out. Ahhhh. Here, have a promo image, and look out for a fun book trailer later today. 
ON DECK: Finally got to the end of Part 2 of SHARD today! Hooray! I cut -189 words and I’m now in the final third, with about 40,000 words left to edit. If I can lose 3-5k out of that total, I’ll be pretty happy.
LISTENING: I found out about Anna Massie recently, and I’ve been really enjoying her album Two Down, which was my first ever Bandcamp purchase. It also features a really excellent cover of ‘The Outdoor Type’. But here’s the track that made me click buy, called ‘100 Days’:
READING: Still reading Murder At The Hotel Orient, which goes out on submission to editors tomorrow. It’s starting to escalate beautifully. Which is exactly what I suspect may happen when it goes out on sub too.
UP NEXT: Plunging into the final furlong of SHARD and contemplating what comes next. Hopefully some more exciting emails this week? We shall see. But the countdown towards publication is definitely underway.
