22 chapters done.
Finished. The story is told, well – the framework is done.
An Australian story, like no other.
Because it might be true.

Congratulations Pete..
feel like I know them,
Congratulations! So are we both seeking the elusive publisher? I am done too. 95,000 words
rip and tear, Team.
Why I haven’t been around much. Johb, family, writing – doesn’t leave much time for anythuing else…. sadly. I miss the visits to other’s work.
yeah, but what is it that you wrote Team? … give it over.
Love versus Goliath, of course – the book of the battle.
If that ever turns into a text book, and good luck with that by the way, you will have pearls around your neck.
The Pearl Necklace award?
If I had a local bookstore, which sadly I don’t, when could I expect this masterpiece of sleuth to hit the stand?
Next year davo, a slideshow in a rented hall down by Somerton beach – background music by Ross Edwards ‘ Da pacem Domine ‘ (29 minutes, that’s all it needs) a couple of old coppers invited, a Professor and some of his egghead honours students – joints provided out the back, and a book stall down the beach on the next day.
Not a big deal.
Thank you both! 🙂 Davo, you can always buy it and recommend it when it is out! 🙂
I paint
I can not write
you are all Brilliant
I read in awe
I learn to explore my painting
by watching you explore your writing
I paint
You are Brilliant
Awe
Explore
steady mate, I’m a bit grey in the mirror.
ohh god lord get a grip man
Pete, Congratulations on getting the framework done, a major undertaking not to be underestimated. If you get chance pop over to my blog: http://tamamshud.blogspot.com.au/ hope you find something of interest there. Who knows maybe a breakthrough thought or two 🙂
Have a great day
It’s a bastard of an elusive plot Gordon, so far I’ve chucked away two almost complete scenarios because every time some more info comes to hand the horizon shifts – I’m trying to create as little as possible and rely on known facts and reasonably supported assumptions made by others in some sort of authority. Plus I’ve put everything I’ve found into a referenced database that can handle interrogation. Hierarchies, sub, sub sub, and some more subs.
Haven’t done that for years. Used to get paid a bundle for it once.
Good of you to come around mate, let’s get this fucker sorted eh …
