I've finished writing my novel, Rule Three and I'm promoting it!
It's the story of the struggle of an English schoolteacher trying to free her father from a death-sentence in a repressive African republic, and how she finds love, and becomes embrolied in an international power struggle on the way.
I started the book about ten years ago - it was something I always wanted to do - but gave up about a third of the way through because I was stuck and because other things cropped up.
Then recently an old friend said she was thinking of writing a novel and immediately I felt sadness that I'd given up my dream with so little struggle.
So this year I finished it. I just couldn't put it down - (I needed to know what happened next!) and wrote a huge chunk while on holiday in France where my wife kindly did all the driving so I could tap away on a laptop.
Rule Three is available in paperback from Lulu
