I'm still here

[wiseheart]

Or rather over at picowrimo. The summer session has started and it's such a delight. I really hope to finish Terminus in these two months.

Not that I'd have done much writing today. Or yesterday, for that matter. Yesterday we did the bi-monthly flat cleaning and today I got distracted by paper embroidery.

I also had to save a few bananas that literally got liquified from the heat. So I searched the Internet a bit and found a recipe for coconut-banana balls. Since I also had some grated coconut left, and some oat flakes and raisins, I stirred everything together in a bowl and baked it in the small hours of he morning. The only time switching on the oven wouldn't kill me in these days. It is very hot over here.

Yesterday I also did some paper crafts with empty toilet rolls, covering them with gift-wrapping paper and decorating them with cut-offs of my embroidered cards. They'll serve as small gift boxes for handmade items for the charity fair. This is a technique small kids will be able to do well. The fair is still half a year away, I just wanted to try out what they would look like.

Another week down, one and a half to go, and then I might acutally be able to eat healthy food and write regularly. {dreams on}

With new job, illness (his and mine) and accompanying a friend of mine down to a literary festival, I've not really got involved in picowrimo yet. But I am now putting scenes together on a virtual corkboard!

Having a layout concept is important!

Thanks, my friend. Terminus is a story that actually has a chance to be finished within a sensible schedule, so let's hope I can do it.

Good to hear you're able to fit in a bit of cooking and craftwork in the midst of picowrimo. I wish you well with all these creative endeavors! Enjoy your summer, and please give Mum my best regards.

Thanks. I'll try to survive the heat. Summer is not exactly my season, but the only one in which I have a little time for things I like.
