have a novel published

It took a while to get started on this one but I went to the cafe last week and began editing my first chapter. It was great. I get really motivated in that environment for some reason, it just works for me. I suppose I don’t have the distractions of home there! Will definitely keep this up.

I have been working on my novel for about 2 years! I like the idea I have and i’ve written quite a lot but I go through phases where I won’t work on it for a few months. Unfortunately I am in one of those phases at the moment! I have just bought a sparkly new laptop so hopefully this will kick start me now! I have lots of ideas for it, but I need to re-write some chapters as I want things to change so other things can happen. I used to love going to a coffee shop at lunchtime, ordering a latte and just writing for an hour. I haven’t done this for ages but I really want to get back into it. I can’t afford to do it every day so i’m going to start doing it once a week from next week without fail! I’m going to sit for an hour and write whatever comes into my head, then work on it on my laptop a few times a week in the evening. My first challenge is to re-write and tidy up the first chapter next week so I can get re-connected and motivated with it. Watch this space!
