Doing a daily blog is fun but by it flies by and at the end of the week I am ready for a recap. Aren’t you? So here are some of the best bits from my recent musings on the writer’s journey. Faith and fear at the start of the week My first couple of […] 
Some days I’m 100% focussed and on my A-game. Some days, I have it all planned out and then this happens … If you are a cat owner you’ll understand. A sleeping cat is an immovable object that cannot be disturbed. Never mind that I haven’t eaten for hours or that I only have […] 
When opportunity comes knocking, will you be in? It is a trite question, I know, because, of course, if a golden opportunity comes your way, of course you are going to grab it. Why wouldn’t you? But how can you tell if it is a ‘golden opportunity’? That is the killer question I want to […]
