What I Learned from Writing My Second Novel
I can't believe it! After two and a half years of gnashing my teeth, SHINE is finished! Neil Gaiman, quoting Gene Wolfe, says: "You never learn to write a novel. You only learn to write the novel you're on."
So what did I learn on the road to finishing SHINE? I've posted half a dozen nuggets of wisdom extracted in the most excruciating manner possible from Shine's roller coaster writing journey. Read it and share my teeth-gnashing over at Notes from the Slushpile.
Then, I shall be eternally grateful if thus alerted to my suffering, you could please, maybe, kindly, leave a comment on the post, perhaps a kind word of encouragement, a hint of sympathy, and then, erm, well, you know, pre-order Shine.
