Writing Again
I’ve started writing my eleventh novel (a thriller) after taking off the Southern Hemisphere summer. I’m up to the first draft of Chapter 4. Scene ideas have been fizzing in my head and bubbling up like a soda spring.
In the last few years, I’ve found writing the start of a novel is less of a hard slog than the rest.
It’s a delight to let my creativity flow again. My enthusiasm in the first week saw me put in such long working hours as to leave me exhausted, leading to some lazy evenings and, this weekend, some early nights. I couldn’t stay up for a TV movie if I tried!
I'm legally blind my optometrist says, when it comes to driving, but luckily, with glasses and a couple of taps on the + sign, I can still clearly see Word text on my PC screen.
When I say I took the summer off, it was just from starting to write a new book. I still spent time producing and promoting my last novel, “The Assyrian Girl.”
The idea for my next novel has come out of the alleged involvement of Russia in skewing the US presidential election, but that’s not the exact theme.
The tax year has ended and my business tax return (which I prepare myself) will be due soon. Yeah!
