First off following the theft from my car a couple of weeks ago I’m pleased to report that the Police have successfully tracked down the individuals responsible and most of the items taken are now safely back in my possession. I can’t say too much as the individuals in question are local and due in court this month. However it’s surprising how many people leave their car unlocked on the drive overnight. I’m not suggesting I live in a high crime area, I don’t, it’s a relatively quiet suburb. So like me people forget or get complacent which makes it an easy target. It only take a couple people a few minutes to wander down the road trying all the car doors as they go. So don’t forget to lock it no matter where you live!
On a lighter note I’ve managed to get a surprising amount of writing done for half-term week completing what will now definitely be the final battle scene of Exiles. The final chapters will pull the various plot strands together providing what I hope will be satisfactory conclusion to the action and set the scene for further developments in the Ark World universe. I can’t confirm a release date yet as this is still the first draft and there’s a lot of editing to be done as Exiles will be significantly longer than Rebels, somewhere in the region of 80-90k words. However nearer the release date I’ll be updating Rebels to include the prologue and first chapter to give all of you who’ve already downloaded Rebels a taster.
