March 26th - 3,041 words today.

Been a much better writing day today, even though I’ve lost a fair proportion of the morning to a piece of retail therapy. What with one thing or another weather wise Marion has been house bound for over a week, so at least the snow had melted off far enough for us to be able to get the wheelchair into the car and get her out. Lunch out was, of course, a bonus too. She’s happy, now she’s got her mother’s birthday present, and her brother’s (which is the day after) and also our granddaughters. As well as, of course, the one thing we buy every time we go to that particular supermarket – their extraordinarily good cream cakes. Forbidden delicacies, but ah well… you can’t keep a sweet tooth down, not for too long, anyway.
So 3,041 words written today, and time to stop and take the author’s hat off and put the accountant’s hat on. That means the total for the year so far is now 267,324 and I’m approaching the climactic scene of this book. I expect it’ll be done, first draft of course, by the end of this week.
Then it’s time to think about the next project, the next stepping stone on my personal giant’s causeway!
