Current work: new book(s)
Listening to: Bach
Reading: Louise Allen, Seduced by the Scoundrel (enjoyed – lovely heroine – and wanted to push the anti-hero in a puddle of slurry! Easy to forget how limited women’s choices were, 200 years ago – very glad I wasn’t around then)
So, my first week as a tortoise. I did spend too much time messing about, so I think I need to implement a rule of ‘no email or internet until wordcount is done’. And it wasn’t helped by only having two proper working days last week; the kids were off for two days and DH was off for one (though that did count as work as we had a very long discussion with the tecchies and I can plan what I’m doing now). Exercise: could’ve been a bit better, but the dancing was good and DH has agreed to go again this week. Food: mainly good except for bread at the weekend that put back all the lard I’d taken off during the week, so I need tor remember that bread needs to be scant rather than in moderation.
But the main thing was reducing stress levels. That’s definitely working. So am tortoising on :o)

Like you I'm trying to be a tortoise. Blogs - lunchtime only! I'm also aiming at a wordcount of 1000 a day. Can I ask how much you aim for a day? We all know your reputation as "Scary Kate" LOL. Thanks - Caroline x
Go, you, Caroline :)
I'm aiming at 1500-2000 a day. Not scary. I do need to up it slightly this week, though, as I know that revisions are about to land and I won't be writing new stuff while I'm doing revs...
Ah the best laid plans... Congrats on all the progress you've made, Kate. I'm having one of those weeks of interruptions this week :)
Hugs on all the interruptions, Lacey. Hope your week improves :)
