These weekend posts are for paid subscribers. I post a writing diary along with more frequent than occasional but I wouldn’t say regular extracts from my WIP.

If you are a paid subscriber - thank you! I appreciate you. If not, I would love it if you would consider upgrading. It costs just over £1 a week (less if you go for an annual subscription!)

If you would like a paid sub but can’t afford one right now, email me and I’ll sort you out.

But then I looked back at my January Instagram posts this morning and the When Harry Met Sally meme I posted on New Year’s Day feels like months ago.

Anyway, I thought I’d take this opportunity to write a short review of my year so far.

I’ve said already that I vowed to take January slowly. To do just one thing a day for Slowanuary. And I actually found it harder than I expected.
