Still haven’t sent the manuscript off to Bruce the Agent. I made the mistake of idly flicking through it again this morning. I spotted a mistake, then something I wanted to change, then something else… by the time the children woke up there were pen marks all over the first few chapters and I was wondering whether I’d ever send the stupid thing out.

I have two new readers, standing by to read the whole thing… now I’m wondering what the big rush to send it to Bruce is. After all, it’s been five years, so what’s another couple of weeks?
