Is the asterisk supposed to be in the middle of the passage? Will it be in smaller font in the typset version?
Most of the time I'd just move the damn footnote to the end, but at the end it kind of kills the drama of that closing paragraph. But yes it will be in smaller font :)
I must admit, I still don't *quite* understand the Screw. Is it a rudder?
It's a bit like a helicopter blade, smaller and mounted on the back of the boat for stability. I might yet remove it.
The letter is cute. What is Clare's middle name?
....you know, I know I had one picked out when I wrote this book, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was now. I think possibly it was an injoke with myself and her middle name was Altjira, which is an Indigenous Australian sky deity.
