It’s quite a challenge to have to justify myself and my decisions for him in such detail. On the one hand I’m having fun and enjoying telling the story, which is what it’s all about. On the other, there is a real sense that if I’m building a new mythology,… |

| Welcome! |
For now, I’ve got to settle in and fiund out what all the buttons in the site’s control panel do. Mostly, I’m worried about finding the ‘DO NOT PRESS THIS’ one and having this irresistible urge to wonder ‘What if...?’ |

| Allie - one for you |
Obviously, as he’s currently a demon, he’s got to have either had a very immoral life or to have committed one terrible action, or a combination of both. Darren came up with the idea that he would have been in the First World War - and I like the idea,… |

| Damon’s car |
It’s a 1967 AC Cobra 427 - the version Damon would drive is a S/C as there were only ever 31 of those made with 500 bhp and they sell for a scary amount of money. Sex, power… yeah! As for noise - just listen to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QW7pfbLfsng So, what… |

| Oh my goodness! |
I’ve managed to book a room at The Witchery by the Castle in Edinburgh and I’m sooo excited. It’s madly expensive, but have you SEEN what our room looks like??? And then there’s the bathroom! To say he’s going to be a bit gobsmacked doesn’t even come into it! We… |

It’s the whole of chapter 6 under the cut, so you might want to skip a bit. |

| The bit until Meg leaves the shop |
Meg glanced at her watch. “Six-ish in Brindles’?” she suggested. “By the time Gran’s finished with me, I’ll be desperate for some sanity.” “And you think that you’re going to find that with me?” “Did you lose it again? Josh! What am I going to do with you? Where did… |

| Writing myself into a corner |
She hummed to herself as she wriggled into her favourite blue shirt and began to fasten the buttons. The sun should have been shining brightly outside; instead clouds lurked ominously, threatening a deluge before the day was out, but she found she didn’t much care. Nothing could possibly dampen her… |

| Tap once for yes, twice for no |
I’ve got the packages ready to go off to the agents. I’ve been through it a few times and it’s as good as I can make it and a little changed from the version that’s on Google docs. I’ve revamped the ‘pitch’ and it’s a lot more effective than it’s… |

| Smudge in the wrong place! |
Anyhow, I need desperate help. I need to get ‘Smudge’ back into the market place. I’m just about over the ghastly rejection I had a few months ago where I was told it had ‘no marketable qualities’ - which is rubbish because the kids at school all like it, and… |

| Original opening of Bedeviled |
This is the original opening of the book, although I’ve since written an additional scene in hell instead of being in Damon’s head so much at the start. See what you think… |

| Young Adult or Adult? |
My first instinct was YA. I’m a teacher, I can write teenagers pretty easily and you don’t end up with much in a YA novel that would cause any raised eyebrows at work! Having said that, I can write under a pseud and there’s no harm doing. Grace at 16… |

| Editing software |
With the last two of these we’re all leaving comments on the same document, so it does cut down on time because not everyone has to correct the same thing, but you can lose the flow a bit because of previous people’s edits. Writeboard is good because you can go… |

| Hey! |
Secondly, a bit of an introduction, I suppose because I know everyone, but you don’t all know each other! I’ve been writing under a pen name based on a family name for the past 7 years, so you’ll probably know me as Imogen or Miss Mac. My usual ‘day’ name… |
