Onto my 36th book of the year which is well beyond where I aimed to be by September. The next five books to get to my planned forty I think will be the three books of Gormenghast, The Name of the Rose and either The Golden Compass or The White Mughals.

But more writing must and will prevail over the coming weeks. The last couple of books I've read on writing have been very useful in focusing some thought especially with regard to rewriting (something of a new concept to me).
