Cracked off another 12 pages of Neither Hide Nor Hair this morning. I was pretty happy with how they turned out. I even gave a little nod to Yann Martel's Life of Pi. Let's see how many kids pick up on that allusion.
Anyway, I was glad to smash through the pages, because the afternoon I started to lose steam. Odd, how my burst of creativity coincided with the warm spell and now that we're back to winter temperatures, I'm starting to feel like a hibernating bear.
The good news is that I think I'm within striking distance of the ending. If I kick things off right tomorrow morning, I should have the first draft finished. That would give me the chance to take the weekend off and enjoy the weekend.
I rather hope no children recognize Life of Pi references. I still have nightmarish flashbacks of the alternate story Pi proposes at the end of the book.
I had Read your book its alsome.
