It was a sunny Sunday today and I realised I've obviously been busy - no blog entries. Not even a thought of writing one. Now I'm waiting for Pat to go in the bath so I can watch an episode of the Dark and have a few mins to spare.
Anyway, I'm about half way through draft #2. I'm now around the 98,000 word mark, which means I've deleted around 7,000 unnecessary words. I realise the first half needed it more but I expect to maintain the trend, getting rid of really long chunks of dialogue and pointless asides. Well, some of them.
In the week Tony and I walked up Parlick Fairsnape Fells, saw tons more grouse and pheasant hopping around innocently and took photos of clouds. I realised I needed a new thin waterproof coat so got one on Saturday.
Oh, I revised the White, Grey and Sky Blue album and put it on my main bandcamp site. I could keep revising it forever as I keep exploring the GR-1. The second half had more work this time. A DJ/Video artist friend wanted some music to set to film so I sent a few, including the Scottish Suite, which is my personal favourite for a while. Anyone who happens to read this blog can get a free download by dropping me a line.
2020 has been a brilliant year for clouds. I've made a few, of course.
Gonna start making cider soon. Should've today but laziness overruled the urge.
