I’m working today so no writing, but here are some of my thoughts on the current music scene…

I finally managed to get some work done on “Empress of the Trees”: no actual writing but my story lining needed some work and I have finally done it, I’m now ready to actually write the final chapters…

I’m absolutely exhausted with almost no sleep last night, so no writing today, or submitting anything to anyone, but at least my loft is done.

An update in the hope I will shame myself into doing some writing!

I explain my ambivalence for football, and my absence for the last few days.

My thoughts on São Paulo as I arrive, and another rejection for “The English Hikikomori.”

I explain how I prepare for a night flight (by sleeping) and talk a little bit about some of the writing I still have to do on “Empress Of The Trees”.

I tell you about the first rejection letter from a prospective agent, and then, just as I was about to record, the second! As well as my ongoing plans for "The English Hikikomori."

I celebrate finishing the editing work on the completed chapters of the first draft of "Empress Of The Trees" and talk about what I plan to do next (which us complete the first draft of the book).

I discuss the limited ways that I use applications such as Grammarly in my writing process...
