How exciting to open my copy of GP magazine this morning, start reading the letters page and think 'how funny, I wrote something about donating to the homeless...' only to realise I was reading my own letter!! Slightly worrying how long it took for the penny to drop - I'd forgotten I'd written it, if I'm honest.
I haven't had anything I've written published anywhere since another star letter about teenage motherhood being my inspiration to succeed a few years ago in Real magazine, so it's amazing to see my name in print again. I used to write for a local paper and write and edit my college and uni magazine/journal, and I just feel writing is what I'm supposed to be doing. I just wish I could find/create more time for it. It's a different headspace to crafting, multi-tasking and generally family-managing, and that's a space I cherish but rarely find. I guess that's something I can work towards. A lovely feeling today though!
Very Happy Days
