I have decided to chart 2013 in weeks to see the peaks and troughs throughout the year. I am intrigued by how moods, creativity and motivation fluctuate, and am indulging myself in this experiment to see what I discover about myself and my writing. It is part diary, part self-exploration.
Week 1 – My 2013, week by week
Week 7 had me sleeping with Leonard Cohen
Week 9 was strangely reflective
Week 10 had me resembling a sloth
Week 11 had me roaming around a cemetery
Week 13 gave me a mentor (and the chance at literary Boggle)
Week 16 was ends and celebrations
Week 17 required mouth to mouth…but I found air
Week 19 was all about exploration
Week 20 threw me down a rabbit hole
Week 21 was a sun drenched slump
Week 22 was a return to childhood & an originality crisis
Week 24 delivered a surprise & a bundle of laziness
Week 25 wrote me into submission
Week 26 showed me the error of my ways
Week 27 was a puddle of sunny catch-up happiness
Week 28 was a rollercoaster of shock, excitement and then shock again
Week 31 was a strike-filled funfair
Week 32 was a busy burst of stars, eggs and magic
Week 33 had me stuck on a hamster wheel
Week 36 was a bit Jekyll & Hyde
Week 37 was the start of a new reality
