The Diary Of A Wannabe Writer

I chat about the future of Doctor Who which seems to be up in the air at the moment…

An update on my day, an unexpected flight and how I almost didn’t get to the airport on time…

Not much exercise or writing today, but plans to do so tomorrow.

I talk about my day, the writing I got done, and my plans for the next few days.

I talk about my day and how I managed to complete the zero draft of chapter 24B. Which isn’t chapter 24B anymore.

Back home from New York, I make excuses for not writing.

I did some writing in New York today. And I recorded my music podcast. And I ate a delicious bagel. Winning!

No promises but I’ve actually done some decent writing two days in a row and plan to do more… Keep tuning in to see if I succeed.

In a somewhat overlong podcast, I explain my plan try and make myself better at everything I need to do this month, including exercise and writing…

I just natter on, not really about writing because I haven’t done any.

I talk about the chapter I’m currently writing and what I’m doing tomorrow.

I finally got chapter 26 signed off today, during a live stream, the first one I’ve done in months, and I even started chapter 27! At which point I realised it probably needed to actually take place immediately after chapter 24…

I talk about my other podcast far too much today.

Achieved quite a lot today, even though not much of it was directly linked to my writing: went on a walk, did some exercise, and actually wrote something (but only a script for another podcast!)

I talk about my day, about the tiny bit of writing I’ve done and about other other things.

I apologise for not having recorded a pod for a few days, and talk about my day. It wasn’t a great one.

I talk about my day and the fact I’ve finally done some writing.

Just announcing a few days off (on top of a few days off that I’ve just had that were unplanned!)

Got home, watched the two missing episodes of Doctor Who that turned up last month. Then slept a lot. Twice.

I did say that you would only get a podcast today if I actually managed to achieve something. Looks like I did! Listen to the show to find out what.

It’s kind of an excuse podcast again as to why I haven’t written, sorry, but when you listen, I think you’ll agree it’s a good reason for once.

I talk about my day. Not much writing (plenty of intention, not much time).

I talk about how little I’ve done down here in Sydney as well as the weird stuff my brain throws at me when I see a coin on the floor…

A little bit of writing to report, and I’ve arrived in Sydney!

I mainly talk about my other podcast, sorry.

I talk about what I’ve done since I last spoke to you and my plans for the next few days.

Flying to Singapore tonight!

Managed to get some writing done at writing club today. Actually meant to do some editing but forgot to print out chapter 25 so started writing chapter 26 instead!

Did some proper screen editing on chapter 25!

Apologies for no podcast yesterday, was tired. Still am.

Tired and talking for the sake of talking.

I’m annoyed with myself today, I was free after lunchtime and didn’t do any writing. It’s not good enough.

Sorry there was no show yesterday, it was a combination of tiredness, forgetfulness, and being wound up by another courier service…

Finding myself very tired in this three tardis town…

Back in Italy again, eating pizza again, not writing again.

A podcast recorded whilst exceedingly tired.

I’m back in Italy, this time in Venice, so it would be rude not to eat a fresh local pizza. Also did some writing…

Very busy and productive day today! As well as writing, I’ve got lots of home chores done. Also in the podcast I tell you where I’m spending the next few nights…

Today I wrote a bit of chapter 25 of Self Portrait and stuck in a sneaky reference to Empress of the Trees!

I had my hip consultation today, here is what happened…

Tired. And tired. This is a very disjointed podcast, sorry.

Reporting on my day from Bologna in Italy, including the fact that I ate a bloody nice pizza!

I had a meeting with a local publisher today that has shown an interest in publishing my books, it was a very enjoyable meeting and I felt genuinely listened to and supported during it. Listen for more details…

I talk about my day, including the first decent bit of writing I think I’ve managed this month…

I apologise for not doing a podcast yesterday and update you on what I’ve been up to…

I follow up on my topic from two days ago, as well as talk about the various options of might happen over the next three days..

I talk about why today was unproductive and why the next few days are probably going to be similar.

I’ve had an informal offer to publish one of my books. Just not the one I thought I was being offered. It’s complicated, take a listen!

I do an impromptu review of DPD delivery services. The episode title is probably a bit of a spoiler.

As is often the way, it’s all in the name.
