Early Edition

It's 4.30am and I'm up early to pick Alicea up from the airport. She's arriving back a couple of days early, so it's gonna be really nice to see her. Mum & Dad are popping over today to see us, I'm not sure what kind of company we'll be as Alicea won't have slept much on the plane, and I didn't sleep much last night either.

After the change of plans over the last couple of daye, yesterday I was finally able to crack on with the writing. And I am pretty pleased with the result. I did a whole load of back story yesterday, setting the scene for why and how everything is happpening. I'm feeling reasonable confident I can hit the 20k - 25k words (my target to be roughly about halfway through the book) by the end of the week, providing nothing else comes up to change my plans.
