Ten Minute Free Write: Couch to 80K – Week 2 Day 1

This year I am working through Tim Clare’s Couch to 80K Bootcamp– a course where you write for 10 minutes a day.

By following Tim’s prompting, the aim is to work through from basics until you reach the ability to write an 80,000 word novel.

Snow

Excited squeals announce a changed world.

The door bursts open. There are visible footprints! Snowballs and smiles. It’s a new garden, a new playground.

Hezebelle 2005-2019

Heze died today.

She was 13, and in some ways she was my best friend in the whole world.

Joen in the Bath

It turns out that JJ likes to cry. A lot. All night, it seems.

This obviously translates into me struggling harder than usual to stay awake at work when being ranted at by delusional people.

Time for a change

I have decided that the time has come to remove my answerphone message.

It is a bit ridiculous, rather annoying, and completely unprofessional. It is also so long that most of my friends refuse to leave me messages. The time has come for a change. However, before it goes, I am going to tell you how it arrived.

Flea while you still can!

Dear Mum and Dad,

It was lovely having you guys to stay.

New housemates

We have a new housemate. She is called Pudding. And she’s an 8 month old lab/collie cross. On the right is a picture of her with the chickens.

We are also (potentially) getting a new housemate. Not going to say what she is called, but she is moving in for a week as a trial run.

Hey, I’m Chris.
