time out

For those of you so kind as to have enquired after my health, I am fine. Helped by the fantastic writing programme called 'Scrivener', I am taking time out from blogging to work on my novel. At least I am trying to see if I can take three years' of scribblings to a point where I know if it is a novel or not..... In a week Julian and I are going to Mali. I may or may not be back. I don't know much right now but I am having fun!

Good luck with everything, Ruth. Keep blogging - I am relying on you for excitement at the moment as I am still trapped by my PhD :-)

Enjoy Mali - I shall think of you there with longing. Hope you are going to trek on the Dogon escarpment, see dances, mud mosques, float down the Niger.....the French anthropologists didn't get it all right, but they sure made it all - rightly - intriguing...It is. Oh - and the music......everywhere.

PS. Don't stop blogging....

While I respect your need for space and time, I have to admit I'm heartbroken that I will not bear witness to your trip to Mali through your captivating blogging. "Devastated" may be a bit of an overstatment, but not by much! I hope you realize the joy and fun you bring into our voyeristic lives!
Good luck...
