2700 words today, total to date 71.1 kwords. It's definitely a novel and not a novella this time. :-)

In the last couple of days I have looked up such things as the likely cost and timescale of reconnecting a remote rural dwelling to the electricity grid after a thirty year hiatus, how old a building has to be before it's likely to be on the listed building register, and what the consequences are if it is, when septic tank sewage systems first started making an appearance, the likely state of decay of a stone cottage that has been boarded up for some decades, failed to find suvey maps of any of the Purbeck qaurry caves but did find a nice sketch of the relevant strata... Hooray for Google, and anyone who suggests that erotic romance authors just churn it out without reference to the real world is likely to find themselves Tuckerised, and not in a manner that they will find pleasing.

Heh. Well it really isn't me unless the name is Mishalak. There are many, many people with my first name, but only one Mishalak. Well I suppose there aren't that many single gay SF fans with my name though. I'll have to read it. <grin>
