Good morning. I write this with a grizzly baby perched on one knee, in my pyjamas, with dishes piled high in the sink. But at least the middle child got off to school ok, and my husband went to work with an ironed shirt and his sanity intact. I should be making up formula, or doing my postnatal exercises, or thinking about tonight's dinner. But instead I'm setting up this blog.
From reading the above you'd think I didn't have mush else going on in my life but children and housework. Before I had kids I actually ran my own catering company, and worked as a chef and cook. I have also done a turn as a teacher, a surveyor, a translator and marketing manager for poetry publishing.. But now I have other priorities my thinking has shifted. And somehow writing, and the incredible power it has to shift your inner perspective, aswell as producing very powerful imagery for others, is where my passion lies now.
I am in the middle of writing and translating a book with my mother, on tiredness.. yes. Ironic I know.
This blog is a way for me to share the thoughts I have every day, my attempt to clarify what it is I'm trying to achieve through my writing, and to generally get my ass in gear. so here goes... oh and thanks for listening. If you are....
