After doing well over the weekend, I've hit the mid week slump. I can't quite get back into the reading habit. I've decided that if I'm going to do nothing else in an evening I'll at least fill in part of my novel's timeline into the spreadsheet. I've now added chapter 7, so far the timeline appears pretty stable but I'm inching towards the messy middle part of the story so we'll see.
Yoga's going well, I can actually follow my routine from memory now without having to look at the reference materials between each posture. I'm hoping to gradually start increasing my weekend sessions up to an hour.
On Saturday, I'm not expecting to get much goalage done as I'm attending a one day poetry reading workshop south of the river, should be fun and inspiring and with the invention of google maps I shouldn't actually get lost.
How's everyone else doing?

Though you feel you've hit a slump, you are still moving forward, it seems. The poetry and yoga will rejuvenate you and will spill over into your writing. Keep up the good work!
Good to hear that you are hitting your yoga goal. I've been walking three-and-a-half miles each morning (Mon-Fri) - at least when it's not raining harder than a sprinkle. I feel so great when I get myself moving in the morning. If you keep that up, the rest will fall into place (I think...ha!)
A poetry reading workshop sounds awesome. I would LOVE that! And hooray on the yoga. Makes me feel peaceful just thinking about it.
Do you ever write after a yoga session?
Looking forward to reading more of you via ROW80!
You're fine Katy. Just keep movinf forward. That's the main thing. Have fun with the poetry outing. That sounds like fun. ROCK THE ROW!!! ~clink~
Hope you get past the slump soon, Katy, and the rest of your week is great!
Dianamurdock, thank you
TMcCusker, I can only do events on weekends, day job and public transport limit my freedom. Most of the poetry I'm working on lately has been based on course guidelines, some of it's horror, quite a few sea poems, portraits. I find I like simpler poems that are about the individual, still getting my head around it all really.
Nadja and Julie, I'm certainly feeling lighter and more alive in the mornings. My yoga sessions are squeezed between getting home from work and having dinner. Once I'm back to raw creative work it'll be interesting to see what effect it has.
Yay Kerry, clink-clink you managed to comment
Thank you Ruth
Yeah, the middle of the week kind of drags sometimes. Sounds like you are doing well, though. Congrats on the progressing spreadsheet and the yoga. The poetry reading sounds awesome. Have fun!
