August 2025 Update!

 


Greetings Creatives!

Yep. We're in August. Has time speeded up? Or have the years always gone so fast?

July was another quick month.  Sadly another month of procrastination for me.

July Review -

Continued on my journey reading Best Served Cold. A journey I hope will come to an end in the first week of August.

Still didn't write any stories!

Job going well and now work from home a couple of times a week, which is great and the cat loves it.

Still not started my health kick and got my fat arse to the gym.

In July did have some good times with daughter and my Mum.  This included a meal out and walks.

Had a good unexpected day out in Leeds.  This included visiting my favourite Waterstones.


Also hauled some good books in July.  One from Waterstones.  The other 2 from Amazon. But needs must!

In August - 

I definitely want to get writing again especially for Edge-Lit in September.  Every year I go I say I'm going to write and never do.  Hopefully by September I will have got something down.

In August 2 women that are important in my life have their birthdays.

One being by Mum, who will be 82.  

The other being my girlfriend Jane who sadly passed away in January.  Hope she's celebrating wherever she is.

This is the month I finish Best Served Cold. In July I realised one of the reasons why I hadn't read much in the last year - I need new glasses.  This includes reading glasses.  So in August I've to see the opticians and get new glasses.  Once I have those I'll be reading loads of books.

I also hope to carry on doing well in my job which I'm liking a lot.

Lastly I need to get healthy and exercise and lose some weight before Edge-Lit and beyond as I'm more out of shape now I'm in an office job again.

What's your plans for August?
