Nanowrimo word count 1991 running total 48507
Tomorrow ‘Write a novel in November’ or, as it is also known, National Novel Writing Month, comes to an end for this year. I have 1500 words to go to make up the 50,000 required. I am writing my memoir, or my family story, as I would prefer to call it. I am about a third of the way into my life, so I’m afraid this draft may take a few more months. I will keep writing but not post up the word count as I did this month.
Today I completed my Marmite jigsaw. It was a present to my husband from his son (we think) a few years ago. It was opened, deemed to be difficult, and left on a shelf. In the midst of our latest lockdown, I brought it out again and spent spare half-hours on it. I thought it would take till Christmas to finish, but today it seemed to fall into place! We sealed it with clear jigsaw film on the back. I will try to post a picture of it in December.

There is a film, on Netflix, that I like called ‘Puzzle’. It’s about a woman who discovers a talent at solving jigsaw puzzles at speed and how this changes her life.
