As reported yesterday, I am editing my novel and I spent the morning changing sentences, not changing sentences, adding words in, taking words out and reminding myself of all my characters (I haven’t been in this particular book for a little while). I suppose I am doing, what is known in the trade, as a […]

I am not as ready as the snowdrops and yet I am afraid my green shoots are pushing through the earth whether I want to emerge or not. I am not ready to bloom yet, I need more time underground, I need to be more tulip! But, nature has the answers and she has decided

I have pretty much cleared my diary for this week. I have things to do but no pressing appointments I have to go to. This is almost more scary than having a full diary. I think it will be good for my health and my writing productivity but it is so tempting to fill that

If last week was very Peoply, this week is going to be dedicated to listening – as a tactic. I will be listening to my body, my inner voice(s), my dogs, the birds and everybody/everything else. There are the sayings such as ‘you have two ears and only one mouth’ which guide us towards using

I have my last ‘outing’ of the week today and I should be really looking forward to it. However, just as I type this, I am not. As I was scribbling in my journal prior to popping in here, I reflected on why I didn’t want to leave my little burrow and meet up with

You lot have stopped opening these messages as much so I thought I would remind you that these are very important words here you know! It is THE Diary of a Fifty Something Nobody. I am going to change somethings up soon so don’t stop reading – you never know, you could be as uninspired

Max Martin very helpfully has written a sound track for my life. He has even had Britney Spears performing it for me. He probably knows I am not known for my singing talents. “What did you do again Kay?” I can hear you sighing from here and I can see you shaking your head. I

Before I leave you mull over my thoughts below, I just wanted to say that I wrote this yesterday but due to ‘circumstances’ (an ‘Im Indoors disturbance), it didn’t get published. I will be sending two out today as a result. Happy reading. I suppose there is the same amount of time as there is

Learning to learn is one of my things. On a very simple level, I feel passionate about ‘teaching’ people how to learn rather than modern alternative which is stuff them full of knowledge. Teaching is perhaps the wrong verb here because the essence of being a good learner is that you know how to do
