I take back what I said about Billy Budd. It took a day after I read it for it to sink in. I thought about it again and suddenly I felt a little awed by the character development. It is an excellent story. I will go on to read all of Melville.
In the meantime, I've got back to writing and revising my long-suffering novella. I want to finish it soon and move on. It's been too many years.
The December break and the prospect of a secondment to a prestigious company have filled me with life- I jogged yesterday for 4.5 miles and practised the guitar the day before. I feel like I am moving from strength to strength.
