Six, seven and four

Hello again. I've been concentrating on editing novelette number six (working title "The B Word") recently. It's been the hardest story so far to write. The problem has been deciding upon an ending. I thought I knew what the ending was going to be, but then I changed my mind. I've narrowed it down to two, and so for the time being there are going to be two versions, and then I'll make my mind up.

In between editing "The B Word", I have started writing novelette number seven, which I'm very excited about because I think it's going to be in two parts. I can't wait to concentrate on it properly, but before that I need to finish "The B Word" and send it to my proofreader, and I am also looking into self-publishing novelette number four.

Novelette number four - Skin Deep - is actually the first novelette I wrote, but for various reasons I decided to hold it back. In fact, I began writing Skin Deep almost ten years ago, and it was going to be novel length. I got past 50,000 words. I then put it away for a rest, and when I went back to it I cut loads out - I was ruthless. It ended up novelette length, and that's when I decided writing novelettes would be my niche. More to follow regarding Skin Deep soon.
