Not much to say today as I guess the picture speaks for itself!!! That's it - first draft finished. Now the fun starts. 🤣 I'll be posting in a few days about beta-reading so keep your eyes peeled if you're interested. 👀💙

2k today! Woohoo. And, as far as the first draft goes, I've got the round-up and ending left. That's it!!! Then it will be the first edits, followed by my CP and Editor, followed by anyone who would like to beta read. So excited!

Oh, and by the way, this is a picture of a male hawfinch. You'll see why he's relevant once you read it. 😆

I'm off for the night now but I'll see you tomorrow. Have fun! 💙

Hey, lovelies. Well, I reached my target. I've managed 1.2k today. I've also got other stuff done around the house and garden, so I'm happy.

For now, I'm off to make dinner and maybe read or watch an episode of Elementary. I haven't decided yet.

Whatever you do, have a good one. See you tomorrow. 💙

I got words in on Marella! Woohoo!! Not many, I only just made my 1k-a-day goal but I'm taking it!

The picture is of Vanora's silver chalice. As I have left Wraidd Elfennol, Vanora is scrying into it. Who knows what answers she will find?!

Have a great evening, peeps. Take care and have fun. 💙

It's taken me all day, doing a little at a time until I need to move, but I've managed 1.9k! I'm so happy!!! I'm calling it a day, even though it's early still, as I really need to move some more.

Take care and enjoy yourselves. 💙

Well, I only managed 800 words today, but I did manage to mow my meadow.

I was doing #NoMowMay but usually, when I do that, I have a #MowInApril before it starts. It was too wet this year, so I've had a proper meadow! Unfortunately, my old mower doesn't cope too well with very long grass so it had to be done. My skin is now red and oozing with my lips all swollen up due to my allergies. Botox, anyone?

Have a great weekend. 💙

My word count is better today & I'm happy. Not only did I manage to write 1.5k but I also made some new teasers for Of Land and Sky, as well as doing a little bit of research.

I also got other things done. It's been a full-on day & I'm looking forward to some R-n-R with a good book this evening. I'm currently reading Welsh Witchcraft by Mhara Starling and thoroughly enjoying it.

Have a great evening. Take care and have fun. 💙

I didn't reach my goal but very nearly - 989 words. I can't say I'm happy with it, but I have reached the end of a chapter and Marella is now on her way home, so it seemed a good place to stop for the evening.

Have a great evening and I'll see you on the morrow. 💙

Today was hard writing so I'm very pleased with my 1.1k total. Now, I'm going to refresh and recharge, before hopefully getting more words in after the Library tomorrow.

Have a great evening. 💙

Even with a trip to the Library, I've managed to add 1.8k to Marella's story. The seasons are moving along nicely, although I will admit to feeling cold when writing about a snowstorm and being out in it! LOL Now to see what tomorrow will bring.

Have a great evening! See you on the morrow. 💙

1.6k added today and it's nearly at 90k!!! Don't worry, it will get trimmed when it gets edited, but still! This is why I wanted to do a rewrite. Young Marella deserved more than a paltry 20k introduction.

No writing tomorrow as it's Library Day but I'll be back with the words on Friday!

Have fun and I'll catch you all then. 💙

#Marella

Woohoo! I'm back, baby! 1.2k written today. Not a lot, I admit, but 1.2k more than I wrote last week.

And after writing about Marella eating chestnut soup with bacon and chives, it's made me hungry so I'm off to get the lasagne and garlic bread ready for our dinner.

Have a great evening. I'll see you tomorrow. 💙

Woohoo! Another 1.4k added to Marella. And to find out why I've posted a picture of dandelions, you'll have to wait until it's ready! 😆

Have a brilliant evening, whatever you do. I'll see you tomorrow. 💙

I made it over my goal - not by much but I still made it. That's 1.2k added to Marella. I wonder if they'll stay when it gets edited?! For now, I'm leaving Marella in the safe hands of Aine, the Fire Trainer, as they discuss Yule history and crafts.

Have a great evening. And give your loved ones a squidge. 💙

A slightly earlier finish than usual for me tonight, but it's at the end of a chapter so seems the perfect place to end. Only 1.2k today but I'm okay with that. I was hoping for more but my office has been busy this afternoon so anything over my goal is good!

I hope you have a fantastic weekend doing all sorts of good things. Have a good one! See you on Monday. 💙

And that's me done for today! Another 2k added and it's Yule in April for me. LOL, seems slightly odd but that's just the way it goes.

Have a brilliant evening and I'll see you on the morrow. 💙

Not quite as good as yesterday but still over my goal! With 1.5k added, I'm happy.

It's done nothing but rain here today. I hope your day hasn't been washed out. Have a great evening, whatever your plans. 💙

That's another 2k down on Marella! Woohoo 😁 I'm happy with that. Her first meal in Hufel was 'cider and onion soup with cheese and apple toast.' (See picture) Even though it's not December and the sun is shining, I felt the warmth of winter soups for this scene!

Now, I'm off to get some dinner myself. I'll be back tomorrow with more words. 🤞 Have a great evening. ❤

1.4k written today. Woot! It's now December and Marella is feeling the cold. Maybe this fire would help her and Nixie thaw out!

It's Big Pud's sweet sixteenth birthday tomorrow, as well as Library Day, so I doubt if I'll get any words in but I can live in hope.

For tonight, I'm signing off to get dinner cooking. Have a wonderful evening. 💙

I've got some words in, but I didn't reach my goal. I've got a cracking headache so I'm happy I managed any. Yesterday, I did 1.3k, today I've done 700, so round it up and I've got 2k in 2 days. I'll take that.

For now, I'm signing off, taking some tablets, and getting an early night. Hopefully, it will be gone tomorrow. Have a great evening, whatever your plans.

Take care and have fun 💙
