This time, more than any other time

Christ­mas dis­trac­tions over with, I’m work­ing to my first for­mal dead­line for writ­ing for a long while. The yearly rit­ual of look­ing through Writer’s and Artists Year­book is over, and the same three names are on the list once again. Will one of them be a lucky name this year?

It’s not much of an update. But, you know, I need to write more ‘proper’ stuff and less non­sense. I’m hop­ing to keep a bet­ter track of the process of writ­ing, but equally I may sim­ply do that in a paper diary. Call me old-fashioned (or Mil­dred if you’re that way inclined), but after work­ing for 13 years in online ‘stuff’ I’m a bit sick of screens and han­ker­ing after phys­i­cal objects — paper, pen­cil and end results.
