Catching Up

As the coffee is slowly making it’s way through our systems, waking us up and preparing us for the day to come, we’re settling in to get back to sorting things out. With a project on this scale, organisation is vital. It’s very easy for us to loose track of where we are, what we’re doing, and who we’re …

A week in the making

For us, we could say that we needed longer to sit down and sort out everything. And to some degree that’s right, but on the other hand? This week has been incredible for us, where we have had a week to focus on what we want out …

“A rose by any other name is still a rose…”

Names are fickle things. Sometimes we like them, sometimes we don’t. Sometimes we’ll go by different names to our given ones. Names that have stuck since childhood, middle names and other such things. As writers, we give our characters names breathing life into them. They’re the things that identify them, making them who they are. …

Patience

Patience is a virtue, and if I’m quite honest it’s not always one of mine. But there are times where I’ve had to learn patience, to deal with things the way that they are or to find other solutions around it. One of the things, in particular, I’ve had to be patient with is a …

Fantasy

It’s been a bit of a week of revelation and discovery for us. Or well, I say that but it’s nothing we didn’t know already! We’ve been looking at our world and finally putting in place our long awaited calendar. Long awaited because the world we’ve created isn’t simple, and certainly not when it comes …

S, not a Z

With a new system of getting organised comes a bundle of tasks that need tending to. Things we've yet to do but have been pushed to the bottom of the pile because in the grand scheme of things they're important – but they're not vital. Vital is what captures our main focus. Important generally means that …

Organisation

Charlie and I like to think that we have things pretty sorted. I mean, we know what we’re doing right? We have everything set up wonderfully and it’s all well organised and we know where we have to go for this file and that file … that is, until one of us moves it and …

Slowly but surely

So, this week has been a bit of a better one for us, we're into a little more of a rhythm on things and back in the swing of what we need to be doing! Which I'll admit is mainly my fault, starting a new job last week which has taken me a little bit …

Week in Review

A lot happens in a week.  We don’t often stop and reflect on what has and has not happened, but sometimes it just hits you out of nowhere that a lot happens.  It sounds obvious, I know, but sometimes you need those moments to sit back and reflect on things that have been achieved.  We …

Questions

Clara has been so nice to cover the last three blogs, it’s time to play catch up! I’ve been having a bit of a social life, between my weekend away and .. well last week both of us kind of forgot. We got so wrapped up in the heat of sorting this whole magic business …
