And the Winner is...

Not me. I was put forward for the Curtis Brown Award this year but didn’t make it. Still, I must keep pushing on. The last couple of weeks have been steady and I have made progress. I have read two novels (William – An Englishman by Cicely Hamilton and The Return of the Soldier by Rebecca West) and drafted Chapter Four. I have also read an autobiography of a woman who appears as a character in Chapter Four (there are only four copies in the UK and one library willing to lend it) and now need to work this into a second draft of that chapter. I have also started drafting Chapter Five and ordered archive material for next week.
