Someone mentioned a habit they are unable or unwilling to drop when writing, which is to use double spaces after a fullstop.

But it doesn't really matter, because it can be easily fixed by searching for [space bar pressed twice] and replacing it with [space bar pressed once].

Occasionally I accidentally type two spaces, as do people who type up book for publishing houses because I notice them in printed books, but it's easily fixed, so it's never a problem.

#introduction I've actually had this account for a few years, but I didn't have an introductory post, so here it is.

I live in Cymru (Wales) and speak Cymraeg (Welsh) as a second language having learned as an adult.

I'm now retired so have more time to enjoy my interests which are photography, improving my Welsh and I've started writing fiction again. I also enjoy knitting, crochet, walking with my husband.

Actually, all the time I use word processing software, I think about how tedious and clumsy all the labour-saving tools are.

What happens when you have too many creative projects and interests but not enough time? I talk about my new experiment with focus blocks, sprints, and organization to hopefully get things done!

So I wanted to change my PP and thought I'd create something more.. me. 😄

Got the inspo from Cory Thoman.

Also it works well as a meta image for my blog. 🙂

Quote of the day:
Scientist Alfred Newton once recorded his daily productivity as

"A few lines written amid an abomination of desolation."

Sometimes, this is the #mood...

The Choice was my #shortstory for the #AustralianWritersCentre's January 2021 #FuriousFiction. The brief was:
• Each story had to BEGIN AT SUNRISE
• Use the words SIGNATURE, PATIENT, and BICYCLE
• Include a character who has to make a CHOICE. 🤔 #writing

“Socrates said, “The misuse of language induces evil in the soul.” He wasn’t talking about grammar. To misuse language is to use it the way politicians and advertisers do, for profit, without taking responsibility for what the words mean. Language used as a means to get power or make money goes wrong: it lies. Language used as an end in itself, to sing a poem or tell a story, goes right, goes towards the truth. A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls. Story-tellers and poets spend their lives learning that skill and art of using words well. And their words make the souls of their readers stronger, brighter, deeper.”
~ Ursula K. Le Guin

I might finish typing up this book before the end of the year.

Then it can rest for a bit while I'll write something else.

Aaayyoo! 😄

So I've been trying to get a few things cleared and sorted, mostly digitally and one of the things was completely(almost there) breaking away from BigTech and finding better alternatives, such as Masto, Pixelfed and recently came across Bear Blog for you know - blogging. 😄

I'm really liking the vibe over there and as it happens, I also have a blog up on it. 🙂

Today I am mostly reading a book about visionary artist and poet William Blake whilst listening to a two hour interview with magical writer Alan Moore.

You can listen to the interview (which I have about 5 times now) here:
