Congratulations Raine. And thanks to everyone for their stories and the pleasure they gave me as well as John for the competition.

I envy you both. I find it very difficult to work on more than one thing at a time.

Well done, Raine.

That is what has happened here, Richard, and now the beaches and coastal paths are closed.

WTF is so hard to understand about social distancing? It drives me bonkers to see how people behave. I have a very large personal space zone at the best of times, which is serving me well. I have become adept at managing my supermarket trolley to keep people at a distance.

We’ve a very popular chippy in our harbour. It, and every other food place in the village had switched to take out/delivery only, which seemed doable for keeping them in business. But there were so many tourists day-tripping or holiday-house-visiting at the weekend that the chippy queue went down the street, meaning that they’ve had to take the…[Read more]

This emergency really does seem to be bringing out the worst in people – and I don’t just mean stupidity. MrsB relayed to me today a news item she’d found on-line, to the effect that refuse collectors are reporting a 30% increase in food waste, some of it still in its packaging. To spell it out, this means that the bastard hoarders are not only…[Read more]

CoronaMo 6 years, 1 month agoI saw you’d done it @raine but I can’t look until I have had a go myself. Well done on the new pantser WIP. Enjoy. You can always be like me and spend months trying to get it into some sort of shape afterwards.

CoronaMo 6 years, 1 month agoI am going to try @janette to combine the monthly comp and the decluttering exercise somehow. Maybe it will be a mistake!

Ath, just to be clear, I am not trying to stop anyone talking about it at all. God knows I seem to have spent the last two weeks discussing, panicking and worrying about it. I would just love to have a tiny bit of something somewhere which was free of it. Like a coronamo group. But only if everybody else feels the same. It won’t stop me wanting t…[Read more]

Very glad you feel the same way. I need a bubble to escape into.

I’m all for it. Currently on lockdown in France but finding it surprisingly difficult to concentrate on anything other than phoning friends. Would love a group to get me focussed on achieving a few things. Could we ban discussion of the virus though?

God yes please!!

Excellent News. I loved that story!

Fascinating story, Richard. Like Athelstone I find it hard to believe that I’d never heard of this accident. I used to travel through Harrow & Wealdstone every day when I lived a bit further up the line.

I think if Debi says Book Club/Reading Group fiction is a thing and other agents identify it as something they’re looking for, you can be 100% sure it exists. For the age, maybe it does make a difference to some editors/agents (although I haven’t seen any examples of it and I am MUCH older than you) but, if so, they are not the sort of people I…[Read more]

It’s a lovely sunny day here too and I’m about to leap outside and attack the weeds. Good blog though! Enjoying writing is the key. It makes me feel alive. I’m learning a craft bit by bit and exchanging ideas with other writers. What could be better!
