The April version of the November write-a-thon is upon us, well, me actually.  I’m not sure hope many others are trying to resurrect an old piece of writing.

The truth is, I’ve been at this story off and on over the past three years, and every time I get a head of steam, something else comes along.

Now I’ve decided to use the April version of NANOWRIMO to get this thing finished, or at least in a first draft state.

Part 3 is now finished and it is onto the laborious work of getting part 4 right.  There will be about ten chapters in this section, and then a short Part 5 which is yet to be written.

Today’s assignment is Chapter 41 and it’s difficult going.  I’m going to have to stop looking at Trump’s COVID briefings because they’re starting to sound like something out of a science fiction book.

Today is not going to be one with a smiley face, for reasons other than lack of progress.  I’m sure I’m not hearing right, we’re not being asked to inject ourselves with dettol, are we?

Today’s word count takes me to the end of Chapter 41 and adds another 1,970 words for a total of 67,080 so far.
