Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday

I am not sure I achieved what I wanted to achieve in the week’s podcasts. I’m pleased I did them, some people said they enjoyed them (thank you) and yet the amount of energy that they took was more than I bargained for.

I’m trying to unlock the knot in my writing and am wondering if setting myself deadlines is the way to go. I don’t seem to get anything done if I don’t have an imaginary wall to bounce against. It’s as if the wall of doubt is so gigantic big in my mind that I need to squeeze myself into a crack to get through it, in order to produce something. And then I’m through and it’s done, it’s out. Rushed, pressurised, but it’s out there.

But the slow, careful crafting of something less intense, more measured? Less about my drama to perform, more about the honing of something enjoyable to read/listen to? I don’t know whether it’s a confidence thing or whether I’m looking for endorsement/encouragement. I wonder about doing something along the lines of a daily weekly installment – à la Dickens. If I had broadband, I’d be learning how to do vidlits in a flash.

But, hey, it’s nearly Christmas. I must go buy things.
