September is a funny month. The end of the summer, the start of autumn, the start of a new term for all of those in academia and thus an end to the freedoms of the holiday period.
It’s not the same as you get older though. Summer holidays, for those of us without children, signal instead a slight lapsing of traffic on the roads and a sudden influx of children in the local park, in the zoo and the cinema.
This blog isnt about what I do for a living. And its like that for a reason. But suffice to say, for me the “holiday” period has been stupidly busy. And so I am actually now looking forward to the holiday I do have planned in September when I shall escape to San Francisco and re-acquaint myself with my own wife!
Suffice to say, my job is both physically and emotionally demanding and so I am looking forward to a decent break.
I’m also hoping that when things get back to normal I might actually find sometime to do some writing. I had planned to re-write Finch so I can try and sell it, but like everything else in my life that has also been on hold.
Meanwhile, from Sweden. I Break Horses!
enjoy the holiday.
