Weather I will or not
You never know, I may venture out of the house today. I think this cold is finally on the way out, that’s a personal cold not cold weather, you understand. I was half-asleep all day Sunday, a quarter asleep on Monday and today, though it’s early, I might only be one-eighth down, and the rest feels a bit more lively. I need to get to the bank at some point over the next two days so today could be the day, and it will be the first in over a week. But I’m not counting my sleeping dogs before they’ve hatched, and other mixed metaphors. I’ll see how I feel later when the sun’s up and see what the weather looks like. Yesterday it looked like this…
I’ve been typing away while I’ve been in my confinement, some days more successfully than others, but I have written the first drafts of two parts of a series; 190,000 words in total since Christmas. I’m nearly at the end of the first read-through of it and then will attend to the editing stage. I also need to find titles before I can move on and finish them, but something will come to me. I’d like to write the fourth Saddling book this year and complete that series, but other ideas have stepped in the way, and the Saddling books are more of a summer project. It feels easier to write them then for some reason.
Anyway, enough waffling, it’s time to get on and see what’s in the email box before getting down to some work, maybe going for a longer distance walk than just to the supermarket and whether I will go out in this weather, whatever it turns out to be. Oh, and yes, I misspelt the word in the post title on purpose. Why? ‘Cos it’s half-five in the morning, and I can write what I want.
