The Diary Of A Wannabe Writer

I finally submit my book to three agencies...

Yes the second draft of my cover letter is done, as soon as it is signed off I shall submit "The English Hikikomori" to three agents... Also I have been doing my wonderful job for ten years today.

I talk about the book I've just finished reading, how yesterday was a "bad day" and also my plans for the rest of this week...

A quick chat about what I’m up to today, why I probably won’t be live streaming on Twitch today and how I am almost there with my cover letter! And somehow this is show 50!!!

Talking about the cover letter I am currently composing to enable me to submit "The English Hikikomori" to literary agents...

A song that I am very proud of, that I recently found the files for and have finally been able to create the version that I always meant to had I not (thought I had) lost the files!

I set myself a deadline for getting my cover letter done...

This podcast has enabled me to continue writing at a time when I would normally have struggled and had quite a lot of time off, let's see if it can hold me accountable for my weight as well!

A discussion about what I have left to write for this novel (which is quite a lot!)

As I’m feeling a little better today, I thought I would tell you about the writing I’m planning later today and some leisure activities…

A quick update about my mental health and an apology for my absence over the last couple of days, I plan to have a couple more days off so all being well I will talk to you on the 10th...

For once this is not an emergency podcast, I did record it the day it’s released, but I’m just tired and wanted something easy that I didn’t have to think about! Back tomorrow with something more substantial hopefully.

A slightly melancholy chat about what motivated the creations of two of my main characters, Freddie from “The English Hikikomori” and Veronica from “Empress Of The Trees.”

Cleary I'm too tired to do a podcast today so here's one I made earlier...

Tasting some genuine local Peking duck, including using a unique virtual queueing system for a very popular local restaurant that I’ve not seen before! Not much writing, deal with it!

Just a quick update, working all day so no writing done, and some more thoughts about my dearly departed friend Penny. I’d skip onto the next one, sorry…

How I accidentally trialled my new writing model over the last couple of days and how it seemed to work for me!

I talk briefly about the progress of my latest short story as well as some wonderful customer service I have received from a local Bookshop…

Talking about my activities today, including my getting around to writing my synopsis for “The English Hikikomori”.

A quick chat about the continuity within my current project and how I am going to have to rewrite one relationship because it seems to be different in the two chapters that these characters already appear in...

Why today is a lazy day...

An update on what I'm reading and what I will probably read next...

A quick update of where I am with my current writing projects...

I talk about the forthcoming election and how some of the forthcoming political giant-slayings might play into scenes I will incorporate into the latter parts of “Empress Of The Trees!”

A chat about my love of two classic UK TV shows (both that intitially ran for 26 years!) and some crossover fan fiction that I have been writing. For fun.
