Procrastination is indeed a skill. I’d do it more often, but I keep putting it off.

Very true. Another great thing is that I have taken time out this year to just get my act together and focus on writing, which feels great no matter what the outcome!

Good on you. If you get in, it was meant, if you don’t, the fates decided that you are better off without it. I think the really valuable thing it would give you is a year in which your writing was prioritised and a group of people to share it with, and inspire and encourage you. But either way, it will be good to see more writing from you.

I’m going to finally apply to do the IIML MA for next year but I wont hold my breath, I don’t really expect to get in.

Even more intriguing. What field are you planning to do it in?

I’m not sure if thesis is the right word for it but I’m thinking about “magical thinking” as a reoccurring theme for my book / MA application.

Nice one Julie
Thanks AAML - I’ve been reading her blog too. I think I’ve had lots of “not to write” space now

Isn’t a picture worth a thousand words?

That TOTALLY counts I have been reading Rachel King at “Sound of Butterflies” she has discovered the joy of giving herself the space to “not write”
