Tea Stains is three years old today. I wrote my first uncertain post here and was rewarded with a comment from a spammer and one from Husband. I was equally excited by both.I needed a blog to join the Novel Racers so Tea Stains was set up to chart the writing of my novel.
I struggled. In the early days it charted the mostly not writing of my novel.
I grappled with theory as I read endless ‘how to’ books; I tussled with voices in my head telling me … well, all sorts of horrible things: you can’t; you won’t; you haven’t…
And here I am three years later, with 107,257 words - the first draft of my novel, sitting in a drawer waiting for attention.
I want to thank everyone who has ever come to read – even those who found Tea Stains by searching for ‘nude people.’ (*sigh* follow the link, if you must.)
