So, what have I been up to since my last
blog entry? Clearly not writing my blog!
I single-mindedly finished my edits on the
book I’ve been working on for the last year and sent it off to my agent –
cartwheels, fireworks, huge sigh of satisfaction :)
I gave myself a couple of weeks off in the evenings and it was quite a revelation to
me (as it always is at this point) that people go out and do things in the
weekday evenings! Taking youngest son to his boating, hubby and
I went for a leisurely coffee, instead of me sitting editing, writing, or planning
in the car, wonderful stuff. I’ve also done a lot of reading, and have read
some excellent books which you can see on my ‘what I’ve read’ list.
After about three days my muse had enough
of watching TV and generally relaxing and began waving story ideas at me,
trying to seduce me back to my desk . . . And that’s where I am right now,
except for desk read table in the garden, under an umbrella, enjoying this
fantastically un-British like weather, busy plotting. I now have an outline for
the sequel to The Only, which I’ll be fleshing out during the next week, and
then I’m aiming to start writing in about seven days. And I’m really excited
about what’s coming Maya’s way. Good things or bad things? That’ll be for you
to decide.
