• Don’t know. Waiting on agents at the moment. Reader feedback has been very good. Agents that have responded either say ‘like the story, don’t like the writing’ or ‘like the writing, don’t like the story’. I’ve been advised by trustworthy sources to resist compromise at this stage and wait/hope for Mr/Mrs/Ms/Miss sympatico to manifest.

    Meanwhile I’d started the next (a more conventional narrative, thematically linked), but then that got put on hold while I applied for a new job. Initial flirtations with applications/interviews has left me wondering if I should sit tight again and get back to the project in hand. Who the fuck knows. I’ll settle on a plan by the end of the month…
