Back from my first writing retreat, 11,500 words written in 3 days and fab food and company #amwriting

First year I’ve enjoyed the limbo period between Xmas and New Year. With husband and son coughing and sneezing I’ve had time to isolate myself in my writing nook and finish all the current rewrites ready to start editing - assuming the compile from Scrivener to Word goes well. ‘Tidy!’

2nd big tree and little tree up and feeling very merry thanks to the cava. #Christmas

Xmas tree no. 1 up with Bach Advent Cantatas playing to keep me sane.
Did mum’s tree yesterday, so 2nd day of not rewriting. Definitely need a sherry or I’ll become the Grinch! #writerlife
