The Shadow Runners

A friend asked me the other day if I would put the plot for The Shadow Runners on my blog.

That might take up a little too much room, and in true writer style, I'm still fiddling around with it. So... I've posted the Central Theme and a Synopsis to give you all the general idea of what the novel is about.

As soon as I have a bit of a look at Chapter 1, I'll post it here for you all to read. Yes, I'm still fiddling around with that too!

Do we writers ever stop "tweaking" our novels?

I'm trusting my own instincts to know when enough is enough. I'll know when I've got it "just right". That's when I'll stop fiddling around with scenes and chapters and send the thing off somewhere in the hope of finding a publisher.

Call me fussy, but I'd rather write it well. I'd rather spend the extra time making sure everything is "just the way I want it" rather than be forever thinking that "I should have rewritten that bit" or "there's that chapter in the middle that isn't as good as the rest of the novel."

No. Give me fussy any day.

So... till then, be content to know that Chapter 1 will definitely appear on this blog soon.

Catch up with you all then.
