20220719 Huge Works

July 19, 2022, 8:30pm

I have managed in the past week, despite some "health" issues, to increase my major non-fiction work from 201k words to 221k words. Yes, 20,000 words in a week. Lots of research, because one of my sources, as I mentioned in my last blog post, ended up being wildly inaccurate. I must be getting close to the end of it now, but I don't like the way I've organised some entries. I'll have to find an incredibly patient beta reader... once I print off 400 pages of a work!!

But 15 years of solid research looks like paying off. Where my fiction comes out like a torrent, this has been a real labour of love and has taken a lot of research, a lot of rewrites, and a lot of time.

Hopefully it will one day see the light of day.
