    Day 35 of writing Me Here Without You

    I’m writing! I think it’s good to keep a record of my journey, how I got to where I got. Perhaps nowhere, perhaps somewhere. Hopefully, somewhere. What have I done? I’ve written about eight chapters, just a rough version. I’ve changed the name of my lead character way too many times. I started with Mia, then switched to some other…

    Day 30 of writing Me Here Without You Now

    I am writing again! I’ve written three chapters. I’m not doing it chronologically but rather where my inspiration takes me, so, bits first then around it. I have a pretty good idea where the story is going, I know where it ends up (in the beginning), I just need to fill in the missing bits now. I’m trying not to…

    Day 25 of (not) writing Me Here Without You Now

    New year, new me, new promise! This is the year I get my permanent teaching position and publish my first book. Phew! So not happening… “Can someone make it happen?” she whispered. Made a list of all the things I want to make happen this year, rolled up the wishlist and jumped into the new year with it. I’m in…

    Day 20 of (not) writing Me Here Without You Now

    Ordered a bunch of books online. Will use this time to do some reading, perhaps become inspired and actually write my own book. Haven’t been writing still. Don’t see the point. Who will read it anyway? I’ve joined some Facebook groups for writers. Maybe that will bring about more inspiration for me, get me going. Hasn’t so far but you…

    Day 15 of (not) writing Me Here Without You Now

    I haven’t been writing for a while… I guess my mom is right, who is going to read my book anyway? Still haven’t found a teaching job, applying like crazy. A former student of mine wrote to me how much they miss me and how much they learnt from me. I miss them! I’m considering what else I could be…

    Day 12 of writing Me Here Without You Now

    I haven’t got the title of the book yet. I’m thinking about Captain Chris Phase or the Year of Captain Chris but that sounds like a fantasy novel, doesn’t it? It doesn’t really sound like a romance book. I don’t know, mulling over it trying to think of something original. I definitely wouldn’t choose a book entitled Captain Chris from…

    Day 1 of writing Me Here Without You Now

    I’ve decided to do it, I’m writing a book. I’ve had the idea in my head for so long. I’m doing it. Know the story of it, know it’s a love story after the love story, don’t know where it’ll be set yet, deciding between Ireland and Finland. I’ve never been to Cork but I’ve chosen that my main character…
