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 […] 
Every writer suffers obstacles on their journey. I overcame mine as a result of two brilliant questions. The most amazing thing about them is that came almost exactly 12 months apart and, as a combination, they changed EVERYTHING. Some people who are reading this may have heard this story before. I make no apology for […] 
What’s in your toolkit? When you run down the list of all those items a writer needs, what springs to mind? Pens? Paper? Laptop? Writing software? All good things. But there is one that, to me stands out about all others. Living the dream I’ve always wanted to be a writer but for a very […] 
You want to be an author. You have been working at it to build your skills and feel it is time to make a start on your journey. But there is something standing in your way. Want to have a guess what that is, in 99% of cases? Fear! There is no getting away from […]

When I was a child, we had a family cat. She became a part of the family when I was three and lived for 16 years, so I never really knew a time without her. So it is hardly surprising that I have always been a ‘cat person.’ In my adult life, however, a cat […]
Aren’t habits fascinating things? My habit is to write my blog on a Sunday morning, pretty much my first task of the day. This weekend, though, I’ve been away (on a retreat as it happens) and, as a result, wasn’t in a position to write my blog on Sunday morning. Now, on Monday morning, when […] 
I’m currently reading Flourish by Martin Seligman. It is all about positive psychology and its application in a number of places. Scattered throughout the book are various very simple ideas and concepts which translate into every day life and which Seligman and his team have scientifically assessed for effectiveness. The tool that forms the title […] |
