Diving down into writing for the day. Going to attempt the magic trick of not checking anything online for 4-5 hrs. Ridiculous how challenging I find that now. Wish me luck! Hope you have a productive morning.

Exploring fairy tales this morn. And dreaming on a title for my sequel to Two Wolves for 2025. (Kids always ask if it’ll be Three Wolves :). Which of these options do you like best?
Wolf at the Door

Kicking off the writing day with three handwritten pages, like most days for twenty-five years. Hope you’re feeling the flow where you are. 😊✌️

Screen Forever Publisher Pitch + Market yesterday. Pitching a TV adaptation of my book, The Fall, to producers. Met some excellent people, loved the other pitches and stayed on for the awards and party last night. No sleep, but a great adventure.
