1. Not getting distracted from main creative projects by smaller ones -
I've found that I can't blog from home, something about allowing cookies. I'm sure I could sort it out, but it suits me at the moment, not to be able to blog from home. It meant I had no excuse not to spend all the whole bank holiday weekend finishing the NIP.
2. Experiencing complete immersion in a creative project for the first time (and some parallels with being at the Reading Festival)-
By yesterday, day 3, I had got into the rhythm, and possibly the 'voice' too. It makes me wonder what else I could write if I didn't have to do so much other stuff like earning a living and looking after my family (what is left of it: I am now down to one daughter, one dog and two cats). It felt normal to spend all my waking hours writing or thinking about writing. What would have happened if my daughter had not come back from the Reading festival to rescue me from my sleep/food deprived existence? We compared our weekends: the only difference from the RF is that I had less alcohol available, oh and fewer men.
3. Thinking about finding a reader -
Today I print out the text, and think about reading it over tonight. Will I feel I can show it to anyone, and if so who?
