I'm looking to up the numbers following my new Instagram. There's very little there at the moment, and I'm really just starting to learn what you can do on Instagram. So far I've learned how to post from my PC rather than a phone or whatever. It's going to be purely used to talk about my writing.

Today I got the first draft of my play 'Ice cream Notions and Energy Potions' complete and ready to send off to various people to critique. The novel version of the same tale is already in that process, and I'm eagerly awaiting comments.
The novel is far more detailed, and in places darker. The script version is more light-hearted and has echoes of the 'panto' form, though it's far from actually being a panto.
