Three phases of writing

Finder's Shore has arrived: a carton of ten author copies; five days till the launch. Can't wait to have it out there and to start getting feeedback.
Meanwhile, Ebony Hill has been shortlisted for the LIANZA Award. Keeping my eyes crossed.

And then there's the new book...
Starting to write is like unwrapping a gift. Quite a complicated gift, with layers of tissue, lots of surprises - a 'pass the parcel' sort of gift, where there are things to be found every step of the way. Then at the heart, the essence of it, satisfying and complete. Oh, and then the work begins!
