So, the first week of theNew Year is over, done, gone. And what have I achieved? Well, I've updated myWriting Contests page, which takes a bit of work and time. I've written threelengthy posts for the blog, the first of which has appeared and the next ofwhich will appear on Thursday. The free read for the novel seems to be meetingwith some good reaction; Chapter 1 will appear on Friday, now that the Prologuehas featured.I've completed my 'ToRead' page on both Goodreads, and on my blog here; see the tab above. Adeliberate exercise aimed at getting me to stick to my intention of reading anaverage of 1 book a week. Of course, I haven't finished the book I was alreadyreading, but Plato's The Republic is hardly a quick read. And, incidentally, isthe reason I haven't yet started to edit the novel I wrote during the NaNoWriMochallenge in November. Having come to this book late in life, I wish I'd readit 35 years ago. It contains so many of the themes I use in the novel that I'vedecided I need to finish reading it before I start on the editing. So, that'sthe priority task now.Watch this space: I'll bedoing a short run-down like this each Sunday.
