In between writing down the stuff that comes unbidden into my head I've been sewing and jam making over the last few weeks. This little pinky-purply quilt is now in the possession of my friends' baby daughter. They've got some of the jam, too!
On the writing front, I've now reached thirty thousand words with the thriller and am getting to the stage where a couple of strands are in danger of forming a knot. I shall write myself a more detailed time-line, I think.
Thriller writing has been interrupted a couple of times by short story ideas. Having a story idea is like having an itch. To stop it driving me mad I have to scratch it - or in this case, write it down. The first is a ghost story, which I will probably tag on as a bonus to a group of three slightly supernatural novellas coming out under one cover - eventually.
The latest, which I've written in the last couple of days, is a science-fiction, futuristic type of thing. You can see how good I am with genres, can't you? I can't categorise my own writing!
