I’m back! After an unscheduled break yesterday I finally returned to writing. Today I managed to get almost 3000 words written of Self Portrait chapter 10, which means that I will very likely hit my interim target of 15,000 words by the end of Sunday!

I talk about a day out I had today that I really enjoyed, and how I plan to actually do some writing tomorrow!

I talk about my third successive lazy day. What a lazy b******.

I didn’t do any writing today, but chatted with my friend T.G. Campbell about various things including “Empress of the Trees.” It was not a formal feedback session or anything like that but she mentioned a couple of things that I found very interesting indeed…

I’ll tell you about my first proper rest today from writing in a while.

I talk about how much I’ve achieved in terms of writing in the last five days, which is probably the most productive five days I’ve ever had writing, and how I might be a bit lazier tomorrow…

I talk about issues with the timeline in Self Portrait, what I did to fix them, and what writing I did today.

I talk about signing off chapter 8 of Self Portrait and then make you listen to a short story I wrote yesterday in 20 minutes from a random prompt…

I talk about finishing the zero draft of chapter 8 of Self Portrait, as well as reading you a short story I had to write in five minutes at my writing group this evening…

I talk about why I did not do a podcast yesterday, and about the fact I started writing chapter 8 of Self Portrait today.
