Yup, horse lover indeed!
I think I've completed nearly 8/9 drafts of my story, and my beginning alone has had 15 or so... (actually, to be honest, I've lost count.) I always find something to add, or something to change, or something to remove. One day I'll stop and say, "No more, you pedant!". Perhaps. I hope. Well, maybe.
But, yeah, you don't have to tell me about health issues interfering with writing. I know all about that, unfortunately.
I hope your back stays okay, Common. And hurry up with your novel, okay! I want to see your book in a store and say, "I know the author".
Plus, a few of us here said we'd all do signings together when we become well-known. You could too!

Tanga, I have to see whether it's any good first. For all I know, Mr Editor might say my work is far from publishable...

Back on topic... I thought
The Crystal Key was weak, too. Very unmemorable.
