I mean it, I’m on a roll….
I know you haven’t heard much from me lately (a cardinal sin of blogging – failure to blog) but I’m back, and this time I’m unstoppable.
I have finally picked the novel back up again – all thanks to my human cattle-prod and all round writing mentor Paul-the-Writer (http://paulfitzsimons.blogspot.com/) whose nagging is uncannily similar to my three year olds (have you written anything yet, have you, have you, have you) – annoying but scarily effective..
Anyhow, I’ve even managed to complete the first draft of my novel plan/structure. Well, I thought it was final draft but writing mentor spotted several large holes at our brainstorming session in Avoca yesterday.
Yes, its all good on the creativity front these days. After a successful week at the Dublin Horse Show promoting Assisted Reproductive Techniques (for horses!) I’ve set up a work facebook page and planned two articles for the Irish Field. I’m hoping my boss will spot that I’m wasted as an accountant and give me a nice three day week writing promotional stuff instead but I suspect I’ll be waiting for that one. Imagine, writing about horse semen for three days a week and my girl-meets-boy novel for two – could result in some interesting cross overs…
I’ve also launched myself on twitter (will have to find out how to post a link on here…) and i’m sure my two followers are very excited about that!
Anyhow, off now to work on the second draft of that plan, he’s given me a deadline you know…
