I Have Some Big News!

You guys? I've finished my book!

It still needs copyediting, layout, checking, footnoting, ISBN-ing, and all that extra stuff, but after seven drafts it's pretty much done. (About time, right?) Here's a mockup of the cover(this is only a rough layout - it will change) :



And there's the title. I could say more, but I'm a little bit out of words right now.

  1. Woohooo!! Well done you - if I were closer I'd insist wisking you away for cake & coffee (or something sparklier) to celebrate. So, "cheers" - raising my mug to you from the wild & snowy north!

    Dig deep and do this next bit as fast as you can because it was the most horrible bit for me (not very encouraging but honest - sorry)
