Seems we have a nation of book lovers over here in NZ. My work is running research to gauge what Kiwis think and feel about COVID-19. Turns out that 49% of Kiwis plan to read books while on lockdown. Reading books comes in third after watching TV/movies (73%, no surprise there) and doing work around the work (53%).
The April Writing Accountability Buddies group is open for anyone who wants to join in. https://colony.litopia.com/threads/writing-accountability-buddies-april.7462/

Got a partial MS request this morning. Then a separate rejection this afternoon advising I find a writing group, get beta readers and drastically cut my word count. Perfect illustration of how subjective people's tastes are. Win some, lose some. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Onward and upwards.
