It's almost time…. August 6, 2015. A very good day to you all, my loyal followers. I have made a couple of changes to my blog which I thought I would share with you along with an update on the novel. Name change – So I thought a name change was appropriate at this stage in the process to freshen things up a little. Some of you may have noticed that I have renamed my blog ‘watch this space’ and used ‘it’s almost time’ as a tag line. 8217; and ‘Is this a one off or is it going to be part of a series? I am ...

Word count… | Mark Draycott Author
https://markdraycott.com/2015/07/26/word-count
It's almost time…. July 26, 2015. Word after word after word after word etc… You get the point I’m sure. I have become obsessed with word count since I have started writing. Each page becoming not only part of my story but a mile in my marathon to make up the minimum of 60,000 words. I am reminded of this figure daily as I strive to hit this target with every chapter I complete. 30-40 short chapters or 10-15 long ones? I look forward to hearing from you. Yours in anticipation…. Middot; July 26, 2015.

It's almost time…. I hope you’ll enjoy these short stories that I have written whilst on my way to work. With very little planning, no idea of where they are going week on week, these have been a real challenge to piece together. Enjoy! Middot; March 8. I really enjoyed reading The Carter Chronicles and Reunited. The Carter Chronicles especially as I wasn’t sure where it was going to go. What was the Shed and what was Allan’s job? I wasn’t expecting him to be a revenge killer! Will we get to find out?
