This must be the third keyboard I've killed. But then, when you think of all the 16 stories I have written with them, most with more than one draft and all of them over 70k words and one as long as 120k, then it isn't surprising that a £12 keyboard gives up the ghost.
So I have taken the plunge and ordered a new, rather higher quality item. It is several times the price of the ones I have been using.
So, I am up to 4,000 words on the the new story. Jess and Rory are getting to grips with the murder of Fintan Balfe, leader of a Ceilidh band.
