It's been a while and I'm a bit nervous. I'm out of practice, I could do myself an injury. I need to have a stretch and warm up. What if I cant remember how to do it? What if its rubbish? who says it wasn't rubbish before? - oh the devil on my shoulder is having a field day!
I don't know why I stopped writing once we moved, maybe it was because I was using all my energy keeping things together, fending off my homesickness, looking for a job, spending all my spare time watching box sets. Maybe I lost confidence. Maybe I cant allow myself to do things I enjoy (the latter theory has surfaced during a counselling session for an unrelated matter.
I love writing. Its something that I do. I love London, I'm a Londoner, who no longer live in London, am I still a Londoner? Who am I now? What I want to do when I grow up? Too many questions and not enough answers.
If I write and I try and I fail then I've failed haven't I? If I don't write, but spend my spare time watching Elementary then I'm not a failed writer, am I?
