It’s the 3rd of August and so far I have watched Stargate for two nights and I find I am now watching Beverly Hills Cop! I need someone with a cattle prod standing behind me ready to zap me when I start procrastinating… So much to do and so much procrastination!
I am in the middle of reading this book, I have quite a few books on how to write but this one I’m loving. It seems weird to be reading it, he start by saying that we are communicating through time. He is a literary genius and when reading this book it actually does feel like he…
Just been reading about Mrs Rowling and the potter series….. really does make me want to get writing and try and make a go of this for real. It would be my dream to see my shattered world books in bookshops and libraries. Well nano 14 is not far off….
