Thinking of 5-2 Diet and attended a public lecture given by super scholar Professor Elizabeth Robertson on Chaucer and Wordsworth's Vivid Daisies

Went to work and gorged on cake. A baby hippo day, I need to make sure I don’t become Mama Hippo. Actually I’m considering doing the 5:2 diet. You know when you kinda only eat 500 calories two days then the rest will be Baby Hippo days.

So two Starving Donkey days and five Hippo days. I’m fine with it. It may be a challenge. I’ve got a book out called 5:2 Lifestyle. Will it work? Don’t know. Anyway will try.

Left work on time to attend a lecture by respected medieval super-scholar Professor Elizabeth Robertson on Chaucer and Wordsworth’s Vivid Daisies. It sounded interesting when I got the email and I like a bit of poetry sometimes so I went along. It was the Birkbeck William Matthews Public Lecture. They do a series of talk. Even Ali Smith the booker prize winner did one. I think that is every year - I mean getting a booker prize winner to have a chat.

Then I went for the drinks reception. Nice see pictures below. Also got a few other posh sounding names for my characters.

So that was how I spent my evening.

Some pictures in the hall.

Anyway Prof Robertson's speech was good stuff. It was mainly about nature and how these dudes studied the flower. Apparently the daisy has a rich literary history - my from France, the courts to characterless ladies and freshness. Wandsword was so taken with it, he couldn’t describe it’s beauty with similes so simply called it a Sweet Flower. Yeah, read the Wordsworth’s Peom to Daisies in the The Cornell Wordsworth: Poem in Two Volumes and you try Chaucer's Praise of the Daisy - from the The Riverside Chaucer.

The grand staircase often used in many movies.

Now, I’m inspired to rename one of my characters Daisy now. My tutor mentioned I had too many same sounding names so I reckon I can do with a Daisy.

My African American & Black Love Romance Adventure Nearly Ready After Four Years.

Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to read this. This post is going to be about my upcoming black love and African American contemporary romance release, which I think tentatively will be late this year or early 2024. It will be a six-part serialised novel, and I'll reveal the date nearer the time. It has been five years since my last black love romance novel. I have two novellas published on Amazon, and I'm pleased to finally say, I'm about to publish again. It's been a long time. I planned to release this book in February 2019, but after a long writer's block and other things, it had taken me this long to complete it. If you follow this blog on and off, I've spoken about it a lot over the years. I'm thinking maybe I should relabel those blog posts as a series of how it developed. The Story Description The names have changed well from Angelica to Pippa but it's fine. Everyone wants someone special but PIPPA MILLER thinks not her. She

On holiday And Vacation in Alcudia,Mallorca

I'm on a holiday break in Mallorca, Spain. So this means a I won't be writing the prompt. On holiday, I normally have a break from the internet though it's difficult nowadays with free WiFi. The hotel is okay. A four star on the lower end of the scale - this means no kettle and renting the safe. The higher end have more add ons. The room are tiny but functional and nice however in fairness it is a beach holiday destination so I doubt there is much lounging around. Food is okay. Superb beach. Everyone seems laid back and relaxed.

Finally I'm getting close to a release date for my urban Black Love African America Romance now Pippa & Leyton

I'm working on a pre-release campaign and it isn't going how I'd like it. However if you have being reading me on and off, you'll know I've been writing some novels-in-progress for the longest times! I stopped writing about it because it just got EMBARRASSING especially when I planned to release this book in 2019. Yes, five years ago! But it's nearly there. Leyton & Pippa The heroine started off being called Angelica but I kept on misspelling it so I changed it to Pippa. If you look under the label Angelica & Leyton a lot will come up. Anyway I'm exciting to say, I'm getting reading for publication soon. Its going to be a six-part serialised instalment, and I'll have details nearer the time. Maybe A Six Months Countdown I'm planning between three to six months, however when the details are clear, I'll write a post. I'm also doing an extended blog posts on another blog but I'll keep it short and simple here.
