Writer's pictureDr. Melanie Adkins

It’s been a while 🐾

So it’s been a while and what have I been doing? I have spent a lot of free time or when walking listening to the recordings I bought from Writer’s Weekend. I am loving them! I’ve only just got to the first headline session on Sat afternoon and the sessions are brimming with wonderful tips and insight! I am writing a novel and picture books, as well as hatching one of my PBs into a chapter book for young readers, so every session has something applicable to me.


Last week I also presented my most ‘toned’ text to my course group with mixed feedback, but on the whole very constructive and positive. i entered my chapter book pitch and novel entry for a mentorship on Wednesday. That evening I was on a mission and I managed both before the deadline. I have been really excited about a PB in my head too. The problem is it is historical in context and I am tempted by the research and then I end up in an internal

conflict between research and doing nothing so I can write and not doing research but never getting started! I must just sit and write ✍️


My only annoyance last week was missing my usual monthly CBC Twitter competition on the Thurs/Fri and not completing a first draft on first draft Friday, but there is always next month!
