This has not been my most productive week. I put that down to the time spent trying to spin a spy story out of thin air. This is what happens when you create intrigue, people like it and they want you to do more. Just a couple of encouraging comments about Back in Service transformed […]
My new business cards arrived and I’ve been slowly getting my ‘twitter’ on. I met with a Business Advisor from a local enterprise scheme, then I had to put my big girl pants on for my first ever networking meeting. Everyone I met was encouraging and helpful, which naturally generated more things for me to […]
I have, again, made the mistake of thinking that I can shelve writing (and exercise for that matter) while I devote my full concentration to backstage duties and facilitating a family visit from overseas.

The enormity of the task I’ve set for myself finally kicked in this week. There is a ton of stuff to do. Like every new phase of life, this one feels different and it is. It’s uncharted territory, also the research and advice I’ve encountered are letting me know this is going to be hard. On the […]
Shifting my thinking so that writing comes first has focussed the mind. As a result I’m writing more and naturally weaving the rest of my activities around it. Again I am putting advice into practice and it works. I had a good flow after the last instalment and was tempted to keep going, but became […]
