That’s great, Portia.

Can someone tell me why I never want to actually work on the book I’m supposed to be working on?

I have been holding his story inside for so many years, it is bursting out faster han I can write it. Portia, it’s okay.

Oh, I’m doing terribly today! Just a hundred or so words added. Although I *am* editing…

Somebody tell me that’s okay!

I keep hoping for deliriousness. But actually so long as there’s steady flow to the words, I am pleased. And so far . . . so good.

Must admit, the story I’m working on seems to have bricklaying qualities to it… but I’m hoping that it’ll turn delirious any moment now!

Indeed. Sometimes the words flow as if I’m inspired. At other times I have to drag them kicking and screaming onto the page (with lots of muttering and staring at a blank-ish screen/ sheet of paper in between).
