I will come here often to add my latest ideas, and see if my story can take shape.A bit like my notebook, but I welcome comments.
I may add the odd rambling diary entry about something I have seen and/or heard. I tend to go a bit George Mikes and/or P G Wodehouse at these times so take everything I write about "life" with a pinch af whimsical salt!
Also here you will find rants erm, essays inspired by prompts or just things that come floating to the top of my mind. It's a very mixed bag, but I hope you will find something to enjoy.

Hooray, I have just passed the 10K mark in my NaNovel. Yes, I should be at 25K+ by now but given my rate of progress I'm rather proud of myself. 10,000 words in one story is more than I've ever written for anything, So I am taking some time out to eat tea, watch Doctor Who and feel happy. Then back to the writing...

"Anyone can do any amount of work, provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing at that moment"
-- Robert Benchley
Thirteen days into NaNo and I have a grand total of 5,000 words. Having told myself that this month is for writing and nothing else, I find myself doing almost anything else rather than commit words to the screen. This week alone I have: Done three loads of laundry that I've been putting off; knitted a pair of gloves and started on a matching hat; re-organised my computer files and upgraded my anti-virus software, and given a talk at the Kingdom Hall. I have written less than 1,000 words a day and, given the amount of time left before the end of the month, I will need to triple that output starting today if I hope to finish on time. So, here I sit, at my computer, ready to write and what do I do? I think, "It's been a long time since I updated my blog. I'd better do that first."
Procrastination is an insidious vice. I can think of only one way to get myself writing at full steam again. I'll tell myself that I have to do the washing up, change the sheets on my bed and mop the floors in every room. That's what I should be doing today. And I will, just as soon as I've written a few more chapters...
