Not been up to much recently aside from going to see Simon Amstell live.
He was terrific. How much of his material is real, how much invention I couldn't guess but he came across as complex and vulnerable; not an easy role for a stand up.
Nothing recent on the writing either owing to a combination of indolence and distraction by my late decision to do NaNoWriMo again with all that involves.

Lazy Lazy Lazy
I really do get tired of myself.
I had a decent little piece about Autumn half written in my head and just never got around to writing it down and now it's evaporated. Serve me right.
Anyway I have uploaded chapter 1 of 'Emma' for perusal. I am working on subsequent chapters slowly.
Just this morning I decided to sign up for NaNo again. Why in God's name have I done that? I really am crazy; I haven't got an idea yet alone an outline and I've got about a week to find one.
I think I'm trying to pressurise myself into disciplined work, but myself is usually wise to that old trick so it may not work and then it'll be tears before bedtime again.
