There is the little matter of a buggered fridge freezer, thus no or little food in the house, and I think I'm down on instant coffee; plenty of real though.
I may have another commission for a book. Sigh. I suspect that contractually I'm meant to say no and approach Another Publisher with proposals - unless I send one proposal to them anyway whilst accepting the commission. I think the next three years are now full. Just as well I got an application for study leave in. Just about. But that's another story.
I'll be posting progress (Wordcounts) on MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/marl0we; highlights will appear here at some point.
Pub. Now.
