Hello! I've been away for a few months because I didn't know where I was going, but in May I got super clear on that and in June I got two chapters drafted and think Chapter 3 will come quickly. They're not yet beautiful but they are becoming my outside of my head book :)

I love it when it happens. sometimes the break is just what we need to get the creative juices going again. Although, it can be a little bit unnerving while we are in it.

Yeah, I had some help from Hanne Blank Boyd’s So You Want to Write a Book. It was very clarifying.

I honestly have been enjoying writing my novel more regularly that I am just upping the time I spend on it. Today I've reassessed where I have got to and started chapter 6. It feels so good to be exploring these characters and letting them guide me to tell their story. Yesterday it occurred to me that I should probably share some of this with another human to get some feedback - though that still feels quite scary and I will have to choose my human carefully. I do want honest feedback, but I'd like it to be delivered with kindness! I really hope this novel will be good enough to publish eventually - and that the full story will reveal itself as I reach the halfway point - because things were only loosely planned beyond that. I already know I will likely want to write this as a trilogy. So yes, I am keen to move things along at a pace now.

Feeling very inspired and in my element - at last. I only hope that my writing lives up to what I want it to be.

In digital world we think life is all about fun and all the creation is very tiny but only the creator know the invaluablity of creation.

I’m celebrating managing to get 6 posts done on healing acronym, headache - May was a big massive mega month of book breakthrough for me. I’ve a hill to climb to get it to a complete manuscript, but there’s a plan in place and I know what I’m doing. So I’m finally realising how much that counts for!

Here’s June’s
