I also have another Christchurch friend who I would prefer not to name here who won a writers award recently. But does anyone actually make any money from having a novel published in NZ? I'm getting a bit critical of some of the dross that gets published overseas and finds its way into the local library. Well, I've got to 4400 words after having typed about 10,000 and erased 6000ish and that's ten days worth. At this rate it should take about a year. Write down the beginning -- and the end -- and then fill in the middle - and then fill in the gaps.
I was wondering about that LL. I've got the plot in my head, mostly, and the high points, along with the ending, are screaming out to be written down. I've been writing in sequence though, like eating your veges before tackling the meat and gravy.... I may change the method..

I once thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.
