1. In the early hours, I'm awake, all alone -- but I've got a new novel on my library app: a fenland gothic Saxon mystery called Mere by Danielle Giles.
2. My book order is one short -- but that doesn't matter, because I can come in again next week to see what stories and volumes I fancy.
3. Nick and I organise our work Christmas lunch. As a freelancer, I often feel a bit sorry for myself when I hear about other people going out for their work do. So this year, I did something about it; and now we're going out for a festive lunch in early December.
