Gosh, I haven’t posted on here for ages. It turns out when you’re trying
to buy a house you really don’t have time for anything. So many
headaches, so much advice, so very tired. But now we’ve bought one and
moved in so things will hopefully get back to normal. I can start
reading books at a normal pace, and maybe, shock horror, do some writing
too! The manuscript for my novel is tucked away somewhere in the
thousand boxes of the move, but once I track it down I’m going to plough
on with my second edit, and hopefully soon it’ll be in the kind of
shape where I’ll let a couple of people read it, and then send it on to
some agents to get some stinging criticism or complete ignorance. Just
wanted to let you know that I’m back and raring to go again, and
hopefully my beautiful new house will inspire my writing on beyond my
wildest dreams.
Congrats on the move! I know exactly how you feel. Half of my books are still in boxes and won't be sorted until we decide what we're doing with our rooms. There was also a notable posting drought on my blog in April!
ReplyDeleteSalman Rushdie can't be the easiest thing to read whilst you're moving .... can't wait to hear what you think though.
Three quarters of the boxes from our move were full of books! I've bought some giant IKEA bookcases so slowly getting sorted :-) Two-thirds of the way through The Moor's Last Sigh now, it's brilliant, not quite Midnight's Children but pretty close
