Sunday January 3rd and I’m all set to go.
My new decade resolution is to write for three hours every day. Malcom Bradwell in the ‘Outfliers’ says that it takes 10,000 hours to become a genius. So by his reckoning 3 hours every day for ten years will turn me into Iris Murdock.
It was easy starting on new Years Day, even easier on Saturday, since Jim was rehearsing, and this morning was a delight.
The trouble starts with tomorrow.
Should I get up normal time and write at the end of the day?
Should I get up at 5.30 and write at the beginning of the day?
Should I have a cat-nap and write at 10.00 o’clock at night?
I’ve asked appropriate girlfriends, ‘What kind of sleeper are you? said Lyn B.
‘A railway one.’ I replied.
Acting is all about honesty, if you can fake that you can fake anything.
