No. [Frown]

Easy one. [Smile]

This is an abbreviated report for a few reasons.

I suddenly had to leave where I was staying and had no internet connection most of the week.

So The New Little Princess is still stuck in Chapter 29. Also, that Chapter gets longer and longer. The Castletons (Princess and Parents) visit their original home, Britain. Each day, for ten days, they are in a different place, doing something different. I don't want to give each day a Chapter: that is overemphasis and drags the plot. But on the other hand I cannot very well write things like "For the next three days they were in Milton Keynes, the Royal College of Music and visiting the President of the UK, Nicola Sturgeon, whom the Princess addressed as 'Ms Fish.'" So I just have to finish one or two paragraphs per day in turn until it is finished.

If I can find another two magazines or anthologies, I will submit "Mozart's Ghost". If not, I will start submitting "Princess On The Warpath".

If anyone wants to read and comment on "Warpath", about 6,000 words, send a message to itsjack2017@yandex.com and I'll do the same for you if you wish.
