I fully intended to make a fresh start at the beginning of year, but here we are in the fourth week of January and I am still trying to clear my decks of various projects … But this week, surely, I can get to grips with my new book?
It is over a year since I have written any fiction, and I am partly desperate to get back to it and partly nervous in case I have forgotten how to do it. So there has been some procrastination involved. I have been pinning my hopes on some feng shui, and hoping that by tidying my study and clearing out a lot of clutter, I will declutter my mind at the same time.
As a result my study has gone from this …
… to this…
Well done, it looks great!
When I was at uni I’d always have to give my room a good cleaning and organising before exams and would say “organised room, organised mind”. I think it really did help.
I do think environment is really important – so I don’t understand why I don’t keep my study tidy at all times!
