This one will be the first one!

Hi all, I have just joined this group. I am engaged in my umpteenth attempt at writing a novel and determined that this one will be the first one insofar as it will be completed and not left to moulder in a drawer, another testimony to what-might-have been.

I just opened the door to the novelist group for you, Rhiannon - welcome! You might introduce yourself by telling us what you’re working on in the “Show Me Your Novel and I’ll Show You Mine” discussion if you're not too uncomfortable talking about what you're working on. And we do a live chat every Wednesday; hope you can join us for that. (And hope the time works for across the pond.)
