I've been back at work now for two weeks and in some ways it's been very difficult for me. Its been a long time since I've had to go into the same office day after day. The fact that there's a lot of work required to set up systems and such whilst trying to generate appointments and ultimately income.

One thing that has happened is my leisure time has become far more disciplined that it had been. Its as if having a limited amount of time has galvanised me to make better used to it. I also don't need the social contact I was getting from online gaming (that's not to say I don't like talking to people online). The net outcome of all this has been more writing time. This has been helped by the morning train journey and I'm often to be found scribbling away madly fighting the twin evils of my appalling handwriting and the pain that comes from doing little more that signing my name with a pen over the last two years. When I get home, I write up my scrawl and then the cycle begins again the next day.

The only drawback with all this is that the ideas keep coming and its not always on the stories I want. I'd love to complete Sins but nothing new is forthcoming, Swaefred is similarly unloved. Harry and Ginny though, are having new adventures in a world where she has just emerged from 10 years in Azkaban for the crime of using Dark Magic in her first year at Hogwarts.

I'm also working on a H&G version of a TV movie I got into recently, Loving Leah.
