I am still here.

I didn't swear myself into an early grave. There were times when I thought that I would burst into an angry ball of flames at any given moment, but I just held it together.

I'm finally writing the novel. It has a plot, it has characters, I've got several thousand words down that I don't hate, and I have three pages of crib notes to keep me on track. More significantly than all of that, I have enthusiasm about it that I haven't had before. It works for me now.

So yey! Good for me! The only thing I have to do now is to get the ruddy words from my head and onto a page before they vanish forever. Consequently I'm keeping my head down at the moment.

Still, it keeps me out of trouble.
