JK Rowling's new year's writing resolutions Jo has updated her diary with some "New Year's Writing Resolutions":2. Do not lose any more notebooks. After a somewhat panicky few weeks I have finally located a missing notebook. As always when I mislay these things, I had been 'remembering', in its absence, that it contained notes so essential and ideas so imaginative that I would never be able to duplicate them, and the whole of the next book would be impoverished if they were never found. Now that I have said notebook beside me on this desk, however, I see that it contains few useful nuggets amid a lot of complete dross. Nevertheless, the stress I endured while believing it to be the notebook equivalent of the Holy Grail was enough to remind me that I must take better care of my working materials. Thanks to everyone who wrote in! Posted by Ciaran on 01/05 | comments [175] | send to friend | submit news |
