Hi all,

My characters took control of my writing again: this time a character added a new plot idea. I had been getting near the stage where the narration jumps in time to just before, what Christopher Vogler in his book “The Writer’s Journey” calls, the “Ordeal”. But my main character has devised another “test” for himself before he reaches his “innermost cave”.

I have been writing a bit more this week, but no critiquing and little reading.

One thing I did read, in The AGE, is that publishing house Macmillian may be paying its authors 20% royalties on digital rights as compared to 10% for print editions. So electronic publishing might be better than expected for authors.

I watched a repeat of one of the ABC Tuesday Bookclub and it was great to see them whole heartedly disagree about the merits of the books they were reviewing. One was A Farewell to Arms, I can’t remember what the other was, but Peter Corris gave up reading it halfway through. He’s not like me, I keep reading until the bitter end.

Graham.
