Diary Of Being A Writer; Week 72

This Week Was About Self- care and Reseach

Monday 22nd July
So far, today has just been catching up. Doing the blogging and posting, I usually schedule for a Saturday. I chose Coffee and Crepes that day instead.
So now onto my new writing week. What exciting things have I got planned? What new adventures and learning are in store? How many words of my memoir will I edit? How much further will I get with planning out my novel? Who knows?
First, there is the matter of pitching the articles and writing the articles.
I know it isn’t as much fun, but it is still being at my desk and writing and researching so stop whinging and just get on with it okay?

You know those days where you have so much to do in such a short time you feel overwhelmed and aren’t able to manage to get anything done? Things are looking a little like that right now. I need to breathe and prioritise.

I have to accept that because of the nature of what I need to write today, I need to read a bunch of psychology and medical research papers first. I shouldn’t complain, I am researching sex and drugs, and I already wrote about rock ‘n roll this morning. Most people would call that an interesting day.
