Keeping busy with paint one way or another. Helps to keep focused on something creative.

Why are we blaming the police when it was the crowd meeting in London at fault. How many people will they infect? Very selfish.!

@whiteteeth75 What a load of rubbish. They said they wanted privacy and here they are washing their dirty linen in public but of course getting paid for it. All while his grandfather is very poorly in hospital. Shame on you Harry.

@MGMMuthuHotels very disappointed in Forte Do Vale, Portugal. Allergy to anything from Allium family (onion,garlic etc.)not catered for. Informed on first day. Hotel run predominantly for French. Told "what do you expect in Portugal" by entertainment team. Jacuzzi not working.

Liberal Democrat’s need to remember the vote was to leave Brexit. I thought we lived in a democracy, not somewhere where a vote like this could be ignored, regardless of your beliefs this is not right.

just realised I have spent most of the day reading about courses,workshops,opportunities being offered etc., and very little time writing. I think I need to change my habits.

@Kirsten_Hesketh It doesn't matter Kirsten. The main thing is that you have got the main body of it down. Now you can go to work on it and fine tune.

Trying to do five things at once doesn't work. Need another pair of hands. Housework will have to go. Exercise is second and perhaps three will be manageable, all writing related of course.

@byMorganWright I don’t agree at all. Life is not black and white. We can all experience and write about many different types.

@johnheffren007 Lord Bichard is an ignorant low life and has absolutely no idea how the average person has to manage their life at pension age. I, and my family, have cared for a handicapped child for over 50 years. A bit of respite would be good never mind more work.

If it encourages more people to read I am all for it.

@VictoriaLIVE @KatiePrice I had to make this decision when my son was in his teens for exactly the same reason. He is in residential care and very happy. It has taken a long time to find the right place but we got there in the end.

[joy thomas @joythomasauthor]

thrilled to be contacted by a reader in France saying how much she had enjoyed "From Rough Towels to Milkshakes" and how she had experienced similar responses from those supposed to care.@SueJohnson9

Just finished reading a People's Friend pocket novel and cannot believe how many mistakes were in there. Is this normal. I am devastated if I find one typo in my work.
