I’ve got a little bit done. Can’t help thinking I’d have got more done if I could find the notes I wrote on index cards leading up to November – I’ve put them somewhere safe and they’re still there. Safe. Perhaps a weekend brief case review will find them.

But, even without the notes, I’m still, at this early stage, confident of doing 50,000 words. Most of them will be words that will be edited out later, but words nevertheless.
