I'm 100 pages into writing my latest novel (my magnum opus) and absolutely hating myself 😆 I feel like I'm writing absolute garbage, but then I look at my four published novels and remind myself that I CAN and WILL do it again. Just need to keep the faith 🙏🏼

The second draft is now out to the first readers. So I guess the question is, now what? Start work on the synopsis? Or move on to another project while I wait. I figure a 6 week break might be a good thing, right?

Another chapter edited tonight. I’ve enjoyed the editing stage more than I thought I would. Taking a 6 week break helped.

Can throughly recommend Honeybees and Distant Thunder by Riku Onda. It was recommended to me by a friend and such a brilliant read so far. Compelling.

Just saw a post from an author (I forget who, sorry!) talking about not being afraid to celebrate success. I agree but I also think one of the problems with social media is that people only post the good stuff, and it creates an unrealistic narrative. Sharing our failures is just as important. 🧵

The 5.30am run involved avoiding a large puddle and giving directions to the train station. I consider that a success.

I saw Timothy West play Lear in 2002. He was absolutely magnificent. A wonderful actor. Great Canal Journeys with his wife Pru was also such lovely viewing.
