(no subject)

The sun is shining (at last), I am sipping an excellent coffee, and I
have finished the Outline - the one I thought I could toss off before
the end of October.

This is very humbling. I have consistently underestimated the time it
would take me to complete this stage of the project. Despite turning up
at my desk every morning, 6 days a week, and producing reams of
material, I couldn't find shortcuts to produce 50 pages of story that
had a working beginning. middle and end, and smelt somewhat like a film.

Oh well. Live and learn.

Sorry for the extended silence - I made a New Year resolution not to
blog or watch TV (except Ashes to Ashes and Doctor Who...) until I had
finished.
