Literary adaptations, funding for writers and tools for your writing workflow
Hello to all you new subscribers. Lovely to have you.
Like most of you no doubt, I'm still working out how to juggle the various balls thrown haphazardly into the air by the current situation. A big thank you and a significant piece of cake (š°) if you're one of the brilliant people who has signed up to find out when my writing courses and resources launch.
Most of my time has been taken up with client work and wrangling the kids. However, last week I spent my evenings putting some new decking around my writing shed. It's all finished and looks great!
I'm now working on a longer piece for this newsletter that explains how I managed to build a garden office. It's really rather handy right now. Got specific shed questions? Just hit reply and ask away.
That's it for now. Go find something excellent in the links below.
