a little more positive this morning. Despite the fact that editing usually makes me feel like Sweeney Todd, murderously cutting bits of my manuscript. As I read through it I can see it getting lots better. I can see the actual shape of it, the drive pushing its way through and I'm really pleased with how it is going so far. It's a good few months of being ready to submit anywhere.On another positive note I have found a way around a dilemma at the end of the novel. Death is not always the end! Well strictly speaking it kind of is but not if you find a clever way around it!
Had a quiet weekend watching Box sets of House compulsively. I do find that I have a lot in common with the main character in House. I love the way he says inappropriate things that are shocking but hilariously funny at the same time. My favourite was this comment to his african american colleague who tried to write on his white board: He said "there's a reason they're called white boards. It wasn't my idea I'm just saying". Then his colleague said "give me the black marker" and took the pen off him. Hilarious, not pc but hilarious!
