localfreakI'm sure everyone is sick of us brits whinging about the weather so I shall try not to moan. Simply it was slushy and grey today and because of that our original cleaning-out related tasks had to be disbanded.
Instead I spent the morning with my textbooks reading and making notes and generally feeling hard done by, and then the afternoon cleaning things and attempting to write. I have actually managed to write two things. They are both probably dreadful but I am trying not to get to hung up on that- at least I have written something without being crippled with second thoughts and self-doubt. And okay, if the first 'story' is an extremely thin bit of self-insert daydream to anyone who knows me that's okay. I'm not intending to publish it or do anything with it. It was an excercise to try and get me writing, and following that I then wrote about 2,000 of a not self-inserty short story. I'm going to step away and then look at tidying it up. I promised myself I would enter two competitions relating to writing per month and this month I am lagging behind.
