Island Life, Word Birds & Process #21
Writers write every day? Kind of… Most of us write a line or two even if it’s only 140 characters (or less) on Twitter. We write letters & emails, make notes, do research & so forth. Some days we go to publisher parties (I know – cool huh?) or book fairs & frankly, that means NO WRITING OF ANY SORT WHATSOEVER. (Honno’s 30th birthday party is why there was no blog post last week.)
Jane Aaron, Honno’s Classics Editor speaking with huge passion about the history of this invaluable imprint.
Sister authors L-R: Me, Caroline Ross, Judith Barrow, Thorne Moore, Alison Layland & Juliet Greenwood.
Today’s offering is brief because loads of people are posting about yesterday’s Book Fair in Tenby & who needs overload?
Me & my book at Tenby
Mostly we do put in the hours & in between the high life I am editing – honestly. I’m scribbling like mad & loving it. After two weekends of ‘authorial’ fun & frolics, tomorrow I’m leaving birdseed on the windowsill, a tray of English Breakfast tea & buns for Mrs Woolf & turning back into a writer.
Onward & sideways.
Good luck for tomorrow too!

It was a great day yesterday, Carol, and I loved hearing about the Honno celebrations from a number of writers, too. Good luck with your busy editing week ahead. 🍀 Can’t wait to hear more about book 2. 🙂

I know what you mean, Carol.
Today I’m having to put my knitting on the shelf and pick up a fountain pen and a notebook and switch the wifi off. Good luck for a productive writing day.
