I really enjoyed reading your article – there’s some great practical tips that I hadn’t thought about before, particularly thinking about those theme / premise questions before starting to write. Thanks for the advice – look forward to putting it to practice and seeing what works for me.

Sometimes it’s the really simple things – like not numbering the chapters (goodness knows, I’ve been getting myself so confused with that one). I just wish I could find my family as accommodating with me in the afternoon, when I am in tired and crotchety (especially if the writing has’t been going well).
