What is a good day’s work on Steam Highwayman IV like?
07:00 – Get up, get dressed
07:30 – Eat breakfast (black pudding, beans, toast, black coffee)
08:00 – Take daughter on the bus to school
08:45 – Drop daughter at school and speak to teacher about her excellent reading skills (daughter’s, not teacher’s)
09:05 – Arrive at library and settle in
09:30 – Write. And eat a packet of crisps, an apple, two Tunnock’s bars, a chicken sandwich, drink a flask of hot chocolate and a large bottle of water as I go. Sort of elevenses…lunch…snack…keep going
14:30 – Stop writing and shake off the daze
Result? A new page on my website and around 3000 words of the book drafted.
