Sunday 1 February
Got organised today as the stupid fashion designer whose book I am helping to write couldnt meet me. Its so his loss!
Started the day with a long lie-in - much needed. Got up about 11am, went for an hours run around the park and then got back and bought the papers and a big box of Kellogs Cornflakes. With all the running, I have to keep the carbs up!
After my breakfast / lunch of cornflakes and fruit, my mission was to spend three hours writing my own stuff. And I did it.
Started by researching creative writing courses coz i need some writing confidence.
Then i had a break and ended up going to tesco to buy some rice krispie cakes (its still carns, I'm allowed)
Finished course resarch and then opened up lots of my favourite boks to 'find my voice'. Read through and discarded lots and am now pretty sure that i will write my fiction project first person present tense to keep it 'pacey'.
Had a healthy tea of fish and salad and ate it as snow started falling over London. Read the magazine supplements of the paper as I was eating, listening to the chart show on the radio. Bliss!
Then I chilled out even more by watching an episode of Jonathan Creek on UKTV Gold. That lasted one hour and 20mins, in which I sat down and did nothing. Havent done THAT for ages.
And then I was in bed about 10pm as planned to brave the elements and get up at 730 am the next morning for a RUN. Bring on the marathon....
