Yes. I went out yesterday morning, early, in the deep snow, I may add. I went down the to local cafe on the beach, got a decaf coffee and wrote. I wrote two new poems for the collection. Of course they need redrafting etc. but it was good, it was real, it got me back into the saddle. I need to keep up the momentum. But it was good to get over the first hurdle.
Maybe it was the reading I've set up at the new Newcastle Central Library that gave me the incentive to put pen to paper. In honour of International Women's Day, there will be a reading at the library on Wednesday 10 March, 6.30 start. And a whole bunch of women will be reading: Maggie Tate, Shirley-Anne Emmerson, Sue Spencer, Degna Stone and Catherine Graham. It should be a good night. Hopefully I'll have more recent additions to read on the night.
