Staring at the screen

Spent all of today very productively revising the multi-titled novel. I think I'm leaning towards Empire of Dust  - a combination of Written in Dust and Empire of Dirt.

Anyhow, it's coming along nicely, though this started out as a not very big revision and it's become huge. I'm going to have a new ending to write and I'm going to need to make sure it's compact enough that I can lose at least 20k from what's currently in the file. I don't think that will be a problem as the way it's shaping up, the ending will be much snappier and less convoluted.

I'm also still agent hunting and have discovered a new one, just taking on, whose quoted likes very much parallel my own. I'm going to send a query. It's several years since I parted company from the last agent and about time I got my act together to get a new one.

And this evening I spent staring at a different screen. You probably already know I'm a self-confessed Torchwood fan, so tonight I watched not only this week's episode on BBC2, but also the 'next week's' episode on BBC3. If you haven't got digital I won't include spoilers but... I am a happy bunny for reasons that maeve_the_red will no doubt appreciate.
