Stressful few days....

Well it's been a fairly eventful last couple of weeks up here in the desolate North East! Quite a few things have happened since my last post, not all of them good!

First, Katie (my long suffering girlfriend,) got attacked in a club on our first proper night out since moving up here. For some reason, probably jealousy, some girl decided to try and start a fight with us in a little club in Guisborough called Mojo's. Before we could do anything about it, the cow had punched Katie and actually knocked her out for a few moments. To make things worse, it was us who got thrown out of the club even though we'd done our best to avoid trouble and the bouncers wouldn't even get Katie a drink! morale of the story? don't go to Mojo's unless you're a local as it seems to be a 'local club for local people' (they even told us that as we were southerners, we shouldn't be in their club, can you believe it?'

On top of that, I've had to drop my driving instructor and put my driving test back, not end of the world stuff but very frustrating! I should have been taking my test and thereby avoiding public transport sometime in December but alas, my driving skills seem to be getting worse not better! My old instructor, a guy called Paul didn't take it very well at all (he was very very rude down the phone!) so clearly I'm better off without him. I guess I should have known better than to stay when he started bragging about speeding and stuff but hey, I thought what the hell, loyalty to your instructor has to count for something right?

So, between trying to sort out the assault on KT and my new instructor, I've not managed a great deal of writing however, the faerie tale is about half done and I may have found an agent! If that works out at least I'll have a better chance of getting my novella published when I finally manage to get the last chapter done! Now all I need to do is find the time to actually write!

Lastly, I just like to say thankyou to all those of you who've taken the time to read the extract I posted in the previous entry and have left feedback for me! I really appreciate your support and have already used your comments to alter the draft version of the faerie tale I'm writing. I don't know if I'll post the finshed piece on here or on my website (there's a link on my profile) or even if I'll send it for publishing but whatever I do with it, it'll be all the better for help from people like yourselves! Thanks again!

Till next time!
