Yesterday was something of a modest smorgasbord of activity: a Crash read-through, a very small amount of work on "C", some NC:5 and Contextual admin, and - most notably - getting the ball rolling for a virtual book launch on 22nd May. A number of people have already requested links for the Zoom launch event, … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 8th May →

It was, of course, hard to avoid the Coronation yesterday , but I'm guessing it only stole about half an hour of my time! It was a little bit of a mixed day with some further work on "C", a 'sofa read' of Crash, and then mainly minor admin activity around New Contexts: 5, Contextual: … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 7th May →

A quiet day yesterday with most activity spent on "C", posting on this website, some minor tings here and there. Nothing to write home about. 'Life' and 'sorting stuff out' took a chunk of the day. None of my time was spent worrying about 'the Coronation', and I need to report that it will absorb … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 6th May →

So, for the second day on the spin, I read through Crash twice yesterday. It is interesting - though perhaps not surprising - how much more fluent a second reading is if within a few hours of a first. Once I'm back from my retreat I think I'll try and fit in as many twice-a-day … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 5th May →

It was the first time I tried this and - not surprisingly - the second reading was more fluent. I think this means … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 4th May →

I can offer no excuse for doing virtually no work yesterday other than my time was taken up with going to buy and then setting up a new laptop to replace the trusty MacBook Air which has served me so well for over eight years. I only hope this new one lasts just as long. … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 3rd May →

Well I must be doing something right. Based on the first third of the year, my monthly average of views to this site is on a par with the whole of 2022. I'm sure this diary is helping. Thank you to those who drop by occasionally! As with a reasonable proportion of days, yesterday was … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 2nd May →

I thought my Crash read-through yesterday morning went well. Having done it so often now I get a sense of where I'm hitting the right notes / tone / emotion and where I'm not. Just under six weeks before the performance and half the tickets already sold... I may get a chance to 'dress rehearse' … Continue reading Yesterday & Today: 1st May →
