Completed the first draft of my third novel tonight (204,000 words, I imagine it will come down from that on subsequent edits). It's quite a relief to finally have the story out. Obviously lots to do on it yet, but I'll put it away for a month or two and hope that it still looks okay when I come back to it.

Now (or after fulfilling some work commitments) I can finally return to my second novel and try to get it ready to publish. It has been through several drafts already, but I haven't touched it in months. I hadn't intended to put it off this long, but the third novel wouldn't leave me alone.
