I had a weird weekend - some routine but yukky hospital treatment that neccesitated a day of starving on Friday and a day of not being able to be left alone - not even allowed (supposedly) to operate a cooker or kettle (yeah, right!) on Saturday.  Followed by a day of feeling sorry for myself on Sunday.

But they didn't say I couldn't write.

So with only about 6k words to go to finish the first draft of Spider on the Web I got this idea for a childrens/young YA novel about magic with horses (not magic horses) and ended up writing 18k words or it.

But today I managed to get back to Spider, I solved one of the problems I had leading into the ending, with a bit of rewriting, and managed another 2k words on top of that. It's now at 96k words and I have the all-action ending and the epilogue to write. I was anticipating bringing this in at 100k, but I may overrun a little. 105k max.
