Catching up

Right. My next project for tonight and before everyone gets home and disturbs me, is to write my blog.

I'm listening to one of the tracks that I'm using for my novel. "Build a Better Garden." That would be a better title for my novel. The track evokes a certain time for me and a different certain time for my characters. Sometimes the two get confused in my head and I have to sit and think clearly for a few minutes.

...Well that was a pointless search. I just spent ten minutes searching for the lyrics to "Build a Better Garden" and couldn't find them anywhere. Hey, does this count as research for my critical rationale? And whilst we're on the subject, is it taking the piss to put down going to the G8 in Germany as research? Even though I would use any material for both my fictional and non fictional wriitng.

However the point remains that presently, my blog is pitiful. I am posting this piece in a concerted effort to catch up. I have two months worth of blog posts stored in my journal which I have not got round to typing. I shall therefore move forwards and backwards through time as need and desire take me. To avoid confusion I shall mark posts as "before" or "after" this piece of writing. Call it an experiment in time.
