Look at the time on that clock!!!

With 19 minutes to go my book is typed, edited (about three pages), printed and ready to be sent off tomorrow!

I did it!

I was confident all of Saturday and then started to worry a little bit in the middle of the afternoon on Sunday when I was really falling behind schedule.

The two periods of highest productivity were Sunday evening and this morning.

Looking at my posted comment earlier today shows that my worst time was probably today with only 5,000 words (only!) between 11:00 and 23:00.

I'd had enough though and was really struggling to the point where one of my proofreaders called a chapter sloppily written! He was right too!

Anyway I can't write more now as I am so, so tired but I'll be back tomorrow or Wednesday with a better diary of how it went.

I did it!

God this book. Wait till I tell you!!

Thank you all for words, comments, pep talk, vibes and thoughts, everything helped and I love that I have friends around me like you lot and that I'm not an Adam or a Matt (the two main characters in November - the novel)

Okay I'm off to cuddle the wife (she couldn't stay up to see it bless her!)

Sleep well (I know I will!)
