Friday 24 Mar 2023: Finally, writing prompts…

24 March 2023 Diane writer at work

I’ve had a good run this week for getting up either early or on time and yesterday was no exception. I was also at my desk bang on 10am. Starting at 10am gives me some time to do some household

Thursday 23 Mar 2023: A glorious day

23 March 2023 Diane writing prompts

I woke up to a glorious day yesterday. The sun was shining, the sky was blue, next door had washing blowing on the line, and Rufus wanted to just sit on the lawn or roll on his ‘fetch’. When I

Wednesday 22 Mar 2023: *Almost* the writing prompts…

22 March 2023 Diane writer at work

I was up relatively early again on Tuesday and, again, I got through a lot of stuff on the phone over breakfast because I knew pretty much what I would be doing for most of the rest of the day.

Tuesday 21 Mar 2023: Proofreading…

21 March 2023 Diane writer at work

We were up relatively early on Monday as the poet was off on another trip away, this time down south. I had intended on going back to bed once he’d gone, but the dog decided to wolf down a big

20 March 2023 Diane writer at work

I was doing really well on Friday morning. I got up at 7:30am, all by myself (the poet was away), got dressed, etc, fed the animals, made myself a hot drink, did a quick dog poo patrol (so the workmen

Friday 17 Mar 2023: Tired Thursdays

17 March 2023 Diane writer at work

I’m always tired on Thursdays, I always have been. I’ve never known why, but it’s a regular phenomenon. So I can’t really blame getting up earlier than usual this week, although I’m sure that doesn’t help matters. We were up

Thursday 16 Mar 2023: Up with the lark

16 March 2023 Diane writer at work

We were up with the lark yesterday, because workmen replacing the conservatory were due at 8am. We got up at 7:30am (okay, it’s up with the lark for us, even if the lark has already been up for hours), and

Wednesday 15 Mar 2023: A better day

15 March 2023 Diane writer at work

Tuesday was better. What more can I say? Other than it wasn’t difficult. Again, much of the day was spent on the hard-copy edit. I only had 18 pages to go but they weren’t as polished as the previous pages

Tuesday 14 Mar 2023: Another slow day

14 March 2023 Diane writer at work

Mondays are always good days as far as my work is concerned. They usually seem to be the most productive day all week. Apart from yesterday. Yesterday it looks as though I hardly did anything. However, much of the day

Monday 13 Mar 2023: Snow!

13 March 2023 Diane writer at work

It carried on snowing through Thursday night and was really deep by Friday morning, so I actually spent a lot of time looking at and photrographing the snow too. The dog wanted to go and run through it all but

Friday 10 Mar 2023: Struggle to get going

10 March 2023 Diane writer at work

I’m sure you’ll all be delighted to know that the snow I ordered arrived in good time for my birthday. I got up early just so I could watch it through the window for longer. It carried on snowing heavily

Thursday 9 Mar 2023: It’s my birthday!

9 March 2023 Diane writer at work

It’s my birthday today. Again! It comes around every year, but it doesn’t seem five minutes since my last birthday post. I’ve already been treated to a trip to see Disney on Ice in Leeds, plus my Plottr registration has

Wednesday 8 Mar 2023: Started a new read

8 March 2023 Diane writer at work

I didn’t big-up the Monkey Dust admin enough on Monday. When I write it like that, it looks like quite a small job, but it’s actually a big-ish job. First of all I had to check when the next gig

Tuesday 7 Mar 2023: Hectic weekend

7 March 2023 Diane writer at work

What a great and busy weekend we had. We took the cat to the vet at teatime on Friday. It doesn’t matter what we say or what we do, they always make me feel as though we should be doing

Monday 6 Mar 2023: Catching up, slowly

6 March 2023 Diane writer at work

The last job I did on Thursday was finalise the three editing samples with tracked changes I did for an editing job I liked the look of. These weren’t paid or even free sample edits, they were examples of previous
