Nov. 22nd, 2005 10:03 pmI am halfway through an extraordinarily busy week. I am halfway through the reviews I promised. I am halfway through the article that is taking forever cos it is serious stuff. I am half-way through my reading for Saturday's workshop with Jack Dann.
If I am halfway through so many things, does that mean I am halfway through my life? Eighty-nine isn't a bad age to aim for, but, being Jewish, I would rather reach 120.
Actually, I just realised I am not halfway through any fiction. I am 2% into the novel I said I would start in late November. This one is going to go slowly and be treasured, because I have said it will. My mood for summer is going to be long and lingering, enjoying every moment. And my mood will be this because I have said it will. I am feeling very determined today, you see. Also very tired. Somehow I fitted a lot into my day.
