Working hard, playing less #Mondayblogs

Working hard, playing less #Mondayblogs

Published by Kai on September 26, 2022

Things have dramatically changed for me here in the last four weeks. As a bit of a recap, I thought I’d share why.In June, I decided that I didn’t want to keep going the way I was, and, as people kept asking, I was going to launch a coaching project. And while there had been a lot of interest in private, in public, people were just…less engaged I guess. And that’s ok – with everything going on in the world, it might not just be the right time for it, but it left me feeling less than stellar, if I…

New stuff…a new design, backlist announcements and more! #mondayblogs

Published by Kai on May 16, 2022

Firstly, I’ve redesigned my blog. I’d love to hear what people think of it, and if you’d like to see anything.I’ll be connecting up more of my blogs as time goes on, but for the time being, and I’d love it if you sign up to my newsletter. I’m also delighted to announce that on Friday, I’ll be relaunching Glass Block! Glass Block When Big Brother fell out of popularity in the early part of the 21st century it was replaced with ever more ‘realistic’ reality TV shows, till the need for this was replaced with a need for fantasy.…

A is for Alive, in a sense…#atozchallenge2022

Published by Kai on April 1, 2022
This entry is part 3 of 10 in the series Blogging From AtoZ 2022

So, I thought for this year’s AtoZ, I’d take it back to basics and talk a little about me, and if I got posts that were the same letter, I’d share them the next day, and maybe even share some of the posts I’m reading throughout the month. Today, I thought I’d go for a general update.I’ve spent the last few weeks trying to recover from Covid. I say ‘trying’ because it’s been hard work to even get motivated, let alone write and work. But I’ve been thinking, which I tend to do when I’m sick. And enjoying my beautiful…

The Covidcoaster – a week of ill #Mondayblogs #rungirlrun #kaiatus #Bloggingfromatoz

Published by Kai on March 28, 2022

Last Monday, I posted about how myself and my youngest tested positive for CV19. Monday/Tuesday, I started getting really sick. Monday, I’d been quite cheerful – after all, Artenapan, my daughter, had had three days of a cough and little else. That’s not how it played out for me (spoiler, it’s REALLY not how it played out for me).The net result of last week was a week spent either in bed, sleeping, in a cool bath, or generally feeling like I was being slowly boiling alive. I mean it’s been great for story ideas (that make zero sense now that…

The last week of * (42) – what is success anyway? #Mondayblogs

The last week of * (42) – what is success anyway? #Mondayblogs

Published by Kai on November 8, 2021

This is 43? Quite honestly, I’m not entirely certain how I feel right now. There are so many different things that I’ve been thinking about. How we measure success. What we consider ‘worthy’ work, when we think about our lives, and how we decide to measure what we’re doing. Like water over rocks, we often smooth away the knowledge we don’t like and find a way to let it settle. And time, like water down a hill, never stops. Judgement – my own worst enemy Self-judgement that is. And I think that’s true of all of us. We’re ALL our…

Two steps back, or gathering strength #Mondayblogs #selfcare #chronicillnessroad under cloudy sky

Two steps back, or gathering strength #Mondayblogs #selfcare #chronicillness

Published by Kai on October 18, 2021

One of the major mindset changes I’ve been trying to work on is not looking at any delays in my life as ‘delays’, and instead look at them as chances to… I guess, design my way around the things that others consider limitations, I guess. Today for example, I’m operating under the influence…of a migraine. Migraines are the bane of my life. Or one of them, at least. I live with several chronic conditions, but migraines are one of the few ones that stop me dead in my tracks. (Authors) living with chronic conditions I’m probably not preaching to the…
