I've only read a small bit but it's too good for you not to continue. I don't read when I can't give the author my full attention which is why I've been so slow lately.

I've ended up doing the first chapter, not bad after writing six others first. but the words of it will tell you how to start making a difference to your feelings.<BR/><BR/>vv good advice, I have so many words in my head it's just hard work sorting out what to write first and not to leave anything out.<BR/><BR/>trousers you're right it doesn't seem a year since we were in that fab pub near yours. I remember last years energy, it was bigger than this years, but now the reason to write is subtly different as well.<BR/><BR/>angela thanks for the encouragemnet, I've already put my first 6 chapters up in my other blog. It's just taken me a long time to pick up the pen again so to speak,but I'm finally finding the energy to do it.<BR/><BR/>ron, your right it is more difficult and it's important to not see it as a massive mountain but small hills to be climbed, slowly getting higher with each piece that's written.<BR/><BR/>sinfive..... what can I say a sex toy site, how relevant.<BR/><BR/>middleditch, you can read what I've done already. I wrote 6 chapters last winter and they are on my other blog.<BR/>xxxxxxxxFire Byrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05477692359400671374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-5818538859944560442008-10-19T15:00:00.000+01:002008-10-19T15:00:00.000+01:00Keep writing you and perhaps we can have a read on...Keep writing you and perhaps we can have a read one day.Middle Ditchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493665280732775898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-80532139318220514252008-10-19T14:44:00.000+01:002008-10-19T14:44:00.000+01:00Congratulations on your blog, we liked it received...Congratulations on your blog, we liked it received a warm greetingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-15173401812502893862008-10-19T14:32:00.000+01:002008-10-19T14:32:00.000+01:00You see, I'm the same way when it comes to being a...You see, I'm the same way when it comes to being a playwright.

There are so many confused people, and not everyone has the time/money to go to a therapist, but reading your book will get them started to think and put some order in their feelings. You are a healer! So just start!

In fact it makes me realise that it was this time last year that we met in the pub and you were telling me all about the conference then. You were energised and inspired - and that, followed by meeting up with other friends later in the evening, served in part as a trigger to me starting to draw again.<BR/><BR/>But the main way in which I can identify with this post is in terms of my making music (or not doing) - when I'm actually doing it, and the ideas are flowing and taking shape, it's one of the best things in the world. So why on earth do I end up procrastinating and finding other things to do instead?trousershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12879862280895772283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-57143308316598444432008-10-18T21:07:00.000+01:002008-10-18T21:07:00.000+01:00Great post.

I ghosted a war veteran's memoir for a lady who had so many memories in her head she couldn't get them down. <BR/><BR/>Drawing her out with questions was the key for her - and in that case, creating a chronological framework to hang events on sorted out the logistics. Try using a hand held dictation machine (or microphone to laptop?) to talk into if it's easier for note making; have a look at imindmaps if you've not used them. They were developed at Oxford for essay structure.<BR/><BR/>You never know where these things will end up. BBCNI picked her memoir off the internet and based a documentary on parts of it. You can imagine how thrilled she was.<BR/>All the best!!virtualjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10653404509129835617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-74517277182355546652008-10-18T20:40:00.000+01:002008-10-18T20:40:00.000+01:00anger! do anger first.. that is the one I am deali...anger! do anger first.. that is the one I am dealing with now and any wise words from you would be so appreciated!!!

The inability to express feelings through tears when it really matters. I can cry at the drop of a hat reading a book or watching a film.
