I seem to have a number of projects going ahead at any one time, like horses on the racetrack.

Strangely enough I find that almost each one is left in the middle of a sentence or even at a point where a misspelt word is half-corrected.

Yes, I guess that this does make it easier for me to continue almost without thinking. I never realised there were others who wrote in a similar way... we all live and learn.

When I have an idea, I turn down the flame, as if it were a little alcohol stove, as low as it will go. Then it explodes and that is my idea. Ernest Hemingway

I love that. Certainly I've long felt that I have various pots sitting on the back of my stove, into which I toss all sorts of ideas and clamp the lids back on. Only when one boils over do I start writing, and hope that all the different things I've put it will turn out to have cooked down together into a stew.

Good quote. I might try and listen to his advice.
