After brainstorming for the past hour and making 4 whole pages worth of notes to improve my story I have named my current corner of the cafe as my ‘creativity corner’!
I work from home mostly in the week and often find myself working on this project from the same room as my normal job… and this didn’t feel right, I was shuffling between both and getting overwhelmed by the whole re-write I need to conduct on my story.
Separating the two areas to sit and think about each in isolation seems to have made me more efficient at both and now I am flowing with ideas, breaking down the re-write into sections, it feels good – I feel organised!
Being someone who gets easily distracted – this is the way forwards for me and I will continue to do this on a weekly basis. ย Plus they serve up the most fabulous smashed avocado on sourdough … and Americano.
Only a few annoying people to drown out as they talk LOUDLY about the some boring crap on the TV. but a good place to sit and observe behaviour too. ย One overly important businessman is across from me now, full of bravado on his phone opposite his junior colleague (who obviously thinks he’s a dick). ย It amazing how many people dominate conversations, even in groups of people, their voices booming over their companions with no awareness.
If you’re sat in a cafe and clock a woman with bright red lipstick, it may be me… if I am looking at you, I may also be writing about you too….
