Once again drafting a book is going to require me to start a new religion

UK-based authors who have registered with @alcs.co.uk - statements are available in the web portal. Very chuffed to have something in my first ever distribution!

This draft has been a nightmare (a fun one, of my own creation) to write. I've had the barest grip on the plot throughout and it's drip feeding me answers. Progress feels like slowly solving a rubik cube. Finally though, the sides are almost all the same colour. This is why people plan first, huh...

This is, by a good measure, the best way to spend Saturday evening
