Hi Will,
That's great news! So looking forward to reading more from you - I've no doubt at all that it will have been worth the wait.
Sorry to hear you've been ill this past week - hope you're feeling better again in no time.
My very best wishes,
Julie

Friends,
I'm pleased to report that I have at long last completed the first draft of Anne Droyd and the House of Shadows. Currently it stands at 84,000 words, which is 290 pages in paperback form.
During the editing period this will fluctuate, but I'm confident that the final version will over the 250 page mark at least.
Like all writers, I improve with each piece I produce, and am confident that you will like what I have done with the characters. It's a natural progression and probably a better read than the first one.
I have been quite ill this past week with a viral infection. A really bad irritable cough has kept me up most nights and I have found that the best time to write is three o'clock in the morning! Once I have become a writer full-time it might be a good idea to work like that always.
Next up is the editing process, which will take a few months.
Still set for a summer release.
Best to you all,
Will.
