No time for writing

I thought with the lock-down I would have plenty of time for writing, but the weather was so good I have been gardening instead.

I used to grow quite a few vegetables in my garden but have got out of the habit in recent years.

I located all my old seed packets and most are out of date but they have two chances: to grow or not. I am hoping I can look forward to several types of beans (runners are my favourite), tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, parsnips, garlic, spinach, leeks and celery - assuming they all come up and survive the slugs.

So, although I am not writing, I am still being creative.

With all the time spent out in the garden, I have only had time for editing a few stories I finished last week and  I have finally submitted to Black Hare Press for School's In - Summer Camp, and Envy - Privilege of Fame. I am still considering the end of my Banned story, I think there are a couple of weeks left to ponder.

In the meantime, here is a Haiku for spring:

Tiny leaves unfurl
Excitement builds as each seed
Begins its journey
