No creative writing

I have not done any creative writing for a while, hopefully in between doing a triathlon this weekend I could do some writing.

However from 10 determinations for the year I have de-cluttered a bit and got rid of a couple of boxes of stuff to a car boot sale, still more to do on this front but a bit at time.

First Author Rejection Notice

I got my first author rejection about a being a UK Technical blogger for an IT website.
"we have already got a person for this position but we will keep your contact details for future considerations...."

Does this mean I am a writer now?

Actually done some Creative Writing!!!

I have actually done some creative writing tonight. I have even edited it and published on to my LuLu storefront. The new story is called Adam and the Race, it is under 1,000 words and you will never guess which race this is about.

I created it using Microsoft Word 2007, it uses a different toolbar system which will take a while to get used to it. From the what I used it did seem ok and fairly easy to use and had a seperate area for proofing a document, this was extremely useful.

I was in my creative zone while creating the work, with my MP3's playing on my laptop with my Sky+ on in the background with the football game on. Then I was able to upload it to LuLu using my Wi-Fi connection.

I only had to get up to make myself another drink!!

Nearly Writing Again

I am getting closer to do some creative writing.

I have done some more tasks from my 10 determinations for the year, which I have de-cluttered some more and got ride of over a wheelie bin full. As part of the de-clutter I got rid of over 200 floppy disks, this is only 1/4 of the storage capacity of one of my MP3 players!!
