Am about a third of my way through the second draft of *Ray and the Stone Cold Axe Woman* . I have rewritten 49 985 words of about 130 000 so far. I think the final book will be a bit longer because I still have to write the actual final ending scene.

Rewriting is going really well. Am enjoying myself immensely. All kinds of character interactions and layers popping up that I didn't realise were there. This is the lesson - you can't do it all in the first draft!

Also, I think there might be some romance emerging? Two of the characters are having some undeniable chemistry that I didn't really plan. The kind where they themselves don't realise what's going on...
