The Wiseness of being Wise.

A wise person has to think up something wise every day.


Um? Ahhh? mmmmm...

Eat Brussels Sprouts. It makes the rest of the meal taste better.

Stop dilly dallying and start running...

I'm watching my friend Zee flying through apres procrastinated procrastination and suffering great bouts of envy.

I've been encouraging her to set a goal of 1,000 words a day and so far, damn it, she's doing it. I told her to stop getting involved in politics and all those distractions that can frenzy us... and guess what?

She did.

And guess what?

she did.

And guess what?

She's almost finished.

And guess what?

The words started flowing.

And guess what?

It started to be much more than 1,000 a day. Even over 3,000.

And guess what?

I wish I could take my own advice and just get on with it!

You know the music of Chariots of Fire movie? I'm humming it right now. Good on you Zee.

For all those no readers...

I am in the doldrums. Self induced and distracted I sit here with blog guilt. I haven't blogged in ages and all my no fans are so disappointed and are sending me no mail complaining about my no blogging.

I apologise to my lovely no fans.

Hugging Heaters

Winter has a habit of bringing out the wooz in me. In summer I declare quite openly how I love winter better. But the girl doesn't always tell the whole truth. In fact winter is lovely when you are warm.

Being warm is all that matters.

The mid-year sales are on and I'm not there...

So that must mean I've become a minimalist?

Love Thy Character

If I want your story I have to love your character. You have to make me care. Otherwise why would I read it?

Visiting old stories...

When you return to your novel after some time, and see it with new eyes, you also realise how much you've learned in the meantime.
