Everyone is writing stories about relationships. Me too.

the-weirdos-magI’m doing a “writing your first novel” online course run by a London lit agency. Everything is cool and awesomo, sort of. It’s just that almost everyone else is writing stories about relationships; mostly husband and wife, sometimes father/mother and son/daughter. It’s all about break-ups, make-outs, rows, regrets, love and lack of love, fidelity and lack of fidelity, trust and luck of trust. I wi

Thomas Wolfe
“Make your mistakes, take your chances, look silly, but keep on going. Don’t freeze up.”
Thomas Wolfe, You Can't Go Home Again

Neil Gaiman
“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.

So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.

Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it.

Make your mistakes, next year and forever.”
Neil Gaiman
