Passed 50k on The Sculptor of Frog Lane. #amwriting. 4 draft chapters at https://t.co/hjQ6PbzkBb Tonight's favourite: "...Doctors must choose blood over honour.” “And if the patient favours honour?” “There is the rub: if you wish to serve humanity you can have no other master.”

Sometimes you write something so wonderful, you have to check someone else didn't write it first. Today's favourite (original) line from The Sculptor of Frog Lane is: “In all branches of mathematics, one should assume a medium-sized duck, unless otherwise instructed.”

Did you know that emojis actually premiered at the Great Exhibition of 1851? In chapter 3 of WIP The Sculptor of Frog Lane, John explores several real exhibits that were on display, including a facial telegraph and leech-powered weather prediction. https://t.co/z7WNpEE9Wu

Yesterday was a 3.5k words day. Those are few and far between. Really enjoying writing The Sculptor of Frog Lane - chapter three of which will be out at https://t.co/hjQ6PbzSqJ this Friday. (Or Thursday, but definitely end of the week).
