I have just now completed Chapter 19 of Necromance. Word count stands at 100,243. I have passed this  not unimportant mark a chapter ahead of my estimate, but every chapter has been just that bit over 5,000.  The death toll is rising, the sky over Sydney is darkening and the clues are falling into place as my protagonist flirts with damnation. In Chapter 20, serious hell breaks loose.

There is more to come. More than I at first appreciated. I've applied for the Orbit Manuscript Development Award which means I have until March 21 to get through it all, plus hopefully a consistency edit. That is why you've seen and heard nothing from me since November and why you are unlikely to for the duration. Now, Chapter 20. I'm sure I can animate something before dinner...

You are kind - you are both kind. But I have just finished Chapter 20 and let me assure you, this is a nasty, horrible book with nary a dragon to be seen.
