Hello
What a strange summer we are having. Extreme heat, more covid, and parliamentary shenanigans. All are unwelcome distractions from normal creative routines. How to stay focused amidst all of this noise?
Before I know it Open Studios will arrive, and if I am not careful I will not be ready in time. To help get around this I am trying new ways to motivate and organise myself, including a hand drawn weekly planner in my notebook.
Sitting down each Monday morning and working out what I would like to achieve in the week is a way of being sure that I commit not only to making new work, but also to keeping in touch with all the individuals who are supporting my activities whether it be on social media, attending workshops or just enjoying my photography.
It is helping to stop me drifting aimlessly through the week. And I get to tick things off when they are done!

I usually bite off more than I can chew, but at least I know what needs carrying forward to the next week.
