Hi there - Like your site. Lots of good resources. I'm, er, emerging too.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get your book progress measuring device? I was smugly congratulating myself on having written more words than you, but then reflected that your 40+k words might well be excellent ones. And mine... Well.. Mine have also taken what sometimes seems like an age.
So I'm probably less of an emerging, and more of a struggling.
(At the moment I'm struggling to even type with a lovely girl of seven on my knee. But as she is so lovely, that's fine.)
Any advice gratefully received.
