And she's off.....

The single most repeated quote i have seen since starting my writing course is 'you are only a writer if you write', kind of obvious when you think about it but so true and to be honest its the only bit of the course i'm failing!

I signed up to the writers bureau about 4 years ago and never got started.  Life - as it does - has got in the way.  I have since changed job, been made redundant and become a full time mum.  My wee man is now not so wee and I have managed to allocate a single day to my writing and getting started, finally, with the course. 

So how's it going? OK I suppose i'm enjoying the discipline of study and research, but i just need to actually write.  So a blog it is.

But what is a blog, what makes people want to read it and what if what i have to say is utter tripe! Just the risk i'm going to have to take i suppose, so as the title says... "and she's off...."
