Burning the midnight oil

Now here I am burning the midnight oil in an effort to plough on with the next chapter of the next novel (the one about the making of the Mappa Mundi).  No matter, it’s a lovely mild night and the moon hangs bright in the sky- why not write when everyone else is sleeping ?  The Man in the Moon will keep me company and shine his light down on my words – I hope.  I’ll put down my pencil when darkness falls.

Bye for now, Françoise Montgomery
