#44 Daily Writing Journal -Still in bed and feeling worse off from cold ymptoms. Writerly Goals for 2019. Taking a Break from Blogging until I'm better.

Still in bed and feeling worse off and frustrated from the nagging cold symptoms.


I feel terrible for the third day running. Normally I can shake off these colds or flu or whatever.This is the worse ever. I totally understand why the elderly and very young get flu jabs. I need to take more care of myself - I mean in terms of my dieting - not weight loss more what I eat. And other things. This has been a horrible experience.

Normally I tank myself up with a fresh ginger concoction or hot lemon and honey but nothing has worked this time around.

Writerly Goals for 2019.

Yes, I'm a month off should have done this in January, or who knows I may have touched on it before. If I have it's changed or being reviewed. I don' really plan these posts so it's however I'm feeling on the day or what I want to talk about. Anyway my goals.

  • Publish two stories either in novel/novella form
  • Write a spin off short story to two books - the first from Another Chance, second is a spin off from Leyton & Angelica (working title).

Non- Writerly Goals for 2019.

With his horrible cold and still being in bed, given it's my third cold in three consecutive weeks, all escalating in seriousness, my main focus is keeping well. Normally I have goals like jobs, career, etc but this year, I need to tighten up on self-care and my surroundings. A lot of my time has been focusing on external things but I need to pull back from that.

Taking a Break from blogging until I'm better

Probably for the best, though it's hard to do when I've started this routine. Oh well, as I said self-care is my focus for this year. Not that anything interesting happens anyway.

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

Lost Four Pounds! Attended Pilates! Watched Patricia Bright

On Friday my boss got bored of me talking about my eating plan and how I only used my gym for the spa facilities, so let's just say I forced to put my money where my mouth was and ended up booking five exercise sessions. Yes, hard to believe I've been with my gym for over a year and have NEVER ATTENDED A GYM CLASS. Mainly, because I like the spa and thing food reduction is the way to lose weight also just thinking of exercise exhausts me. I needed to book them via the website but having never done it, my password failed so I rang, in front of my boss, the gym to book it. Proof. They are mainly low impact classes so nothing too strenuous or so I thought. Come Saturday, I'm down the gym for my pilates class with all these fit, slim and trendy people. It's a 9AM class so basically like a work day for me. I thought pilates was gentle. Not. I say this having done it for about three years in a dance school - yeah I was once about twenty pounds or ten kilos lighter - and the

HAPPY NEW YEAR - LET THE GOALS ROLL

Hello all. Happy New Year! So last year was awesome for me because I managed to achieve one goal. The biggest goal which was to get a new job. And that came with financial reward as well. Yay! It was hard, challenging, horrible. I hate change but I had to get out of the rut I was in. Dudes, I was desperate to move. So I dug deep, did my interview practice, attended a number of interviews and hit one. Yay. Now longer gaming. I didn't need the escapism with my new positive work environment. I also abandoned the iPhone family and went Android. To cut a long story short, I got bought an iPhone 8 but it was faulty - however Apple weren't transparent about their return policy - ALWAYS ASK ABOUT RETURN POLICY. Nor did they believe the phone was faulty. It was. Anyway I was so disgusted the arrogance of the 'apple people', I decided instead of getting a replacement to spend my money elsewhere. I'm still part of the Apple family. But the Apple Store sales assist
