A Notebook for Eileen
http://anotebookforeileen.blogspot.com/2015/07/july-2015-2015-has-not-been-best-of.html
A Notebook for Eileen. Saturday, 25 July 2015. 2015 has not been the best of summers. And yet in spite of the inclement weather or perhaps even because of it. The countryside has been alive with colour - an absolute delight. A few weeks ago the lanes and footpaths behind my home were shoulder-high with Cow Parsley (or Old Man’s Tobacco as I knew it when I was a child.) May-blossom brightened the hedges and the fields were carpeted with buttercups. Obviously the sea air suits it. In this air balloon.

Kate Writes and Reads: Go Set a Watchman
http://katewritesandreads.blogspot.com/2015/07/go-set-watchman.html
Kate Writes and Reads. Tuesday, 14 July 2015. Go Set a Watchman. As just about everyone in the world knows, Go Set A Watchman. By Harper Lee is published today, 14 July. To get in the mood, and to prepare for reading it, I thought I’d speed re-read To Kill a Mockingbird. I found I didn’t want to do that – speed-read it, I mean. I wanted to take it slowly, no skimming. Can Go Set A Watchman. Its UK editor has said, 'There will be those who'll say: you have spoiled Mockingbird. This wasn't on that scale of...

Alison In Writerland: My November First Paragraph Project
http://alisoninwriterland.blogspot.com/2014/11/my-november-first-paragraph-project.html
Sunday, 9 November 2014. My November First Paragraph Project. It's November again (how did that happen? The time of year when many brave writers turn their attention to NaNoWriMo. In other news, I've had a few more writing successes. That story that was longlisted in the Doris Gooderson competition was sent out into the world again to take its chances, and ended up published in Issue One of Kishboo, an exciting new online magazine. You can read my story here. And finally, I've been a runner-up in WriteIn...

Alison In Writerland: A Little Encouragement Goes A Long Way
http://alisoninwriterland.blogspot.com/2015/03/a-little-encouragement-goes-long-way.html
Monday, 16 March 2015. A Little Encouragement Goes A Long Way. I'm not quite sure how it's happened, but almost a quarter of 2015 has passed. It's been a frustrating few months, without a single publication. I haven't even managed a WriteInvite shortlisting, even though I've been entering every week. I've definitely fallen out of favour there. On the positive side, I've actually been writing more than ever. Thanks to writing sessions with my writing buddy Jo. Included in issue 2 of Firewords Quarterly.

Alison In Writerland: May 2014
http://alisoninwriterland.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Monday, 26 May 2014. I can think of no better place to restart a blog than with something I've been published in. I've been published before, in magazines, and competition anthologies. Nothing else, though, has made me quite as proud as being part of this new anthology of woman writers My Baby Shot Me Down. In other news, I'm wondering whether it's worth entering The Bridport Prize. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 160; . 160; . 160; . 160; . 160; . View my complete profile.

Alison In Writerland: February 2015
http://alisoninwriterland.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, 2 February 2015. Still Just Getting On With It. Ironically, I've written more this month than I've done for a long, long time, thanks mostly to almost daily sessions with my writing buddy. I've got a handful of brand new stories in first draft form. I'm quite excited about a couple of them. I'm sure I'm a better writer now than I was this time last year. All I need is a bit of encouragement. Please? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 160; . 160; . 160; . View my complete profile.
