Wishing everyone a happy and creative and productive and interesting 2024

I am constantly impressed by the variety and artistry of book covers. It is one of the most under-appreciated forms of creativity in my view.

A day of editing. Does that count as writing?

I cannot get my current novel over the finish line. Long walk with the dog and stern talk with myself required.

Split some wood for the fire but other than that it's been a rare day of uninterrupted writing.

Does anyone else write mid-point murders? I like those the best but they are more complex to write. Or is it just me?

When you're editing, are you bold enough to delete large chunks of text, or do you cut and paste them somewhere else? Just in case you have second thoughts.

Amazon Ads. I'm sure the concept looks good on a whiteboard but it seems to me the most bizarre system devized for advertising a book. Have I just not understood it?
