Mama Counting

I finished writing this draft in June 2015. Promise. Started writing it on 1 November 2013. I even published it so I could get my two free printed copies for beta reading when I won NaNoWrimo in 2015 (evidence: ISBN 9781514747049 priced it to discourage purchases of a work in progress).

Since June 2015, I haven’t touched the text since then except to correct chapter numbers.

Basically, all names, events and things I made up at that time are purely coincidence, etc. etc. etc. You know the disclaimer.

But yesterday and today, I am realising that real life seems to have started to echo fiction. For example:

M might be the Chief

And I might now be Riley

Chapter Twenty-Nine

I can think of a couple of other somewhat uncanny things.

What’s going on?

Other than that I just wrote a haiku.
