Quite the stroll from this aspiring writer's desk (circa 1992) ...
to this emerging writer's contract signing (2012) ...
Both are privileged states.

oh well done! congratulations.
ReplyDeleteGee, thanks Daniel!! xxx
ReplyDeleteYou typed your entire manuscript on a typewriter?! Wow!
ReplyDeleteOops, this may be misleading - it's more representative of the very long time I've been writing ... no, Cracked was written with a pen and a computer :)
ReplyDeleteAnd my shack is slightly more civilised these days, too ... but weirdly reminiscent, now I come to think about it!
ReplyDeleteQuite relieved to hear that, I have to say! x
ReplyDeleteI had no electricity in 'the cabin' in 1992 ... and no one in my world had the Internet ...
DeleteAh - the good ol' Olden Days! ;-)
DeleteSuper congratulations, Clare. And, is that a cassette tape sitting to the right of your typewriter?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mark :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a tape! I had a tapedeck that ran off a solar-powered car battery (I loved it so much). I noticed there's Nutella too, and an ashtray and packet of Camel filtered cigarettes ...
Congratulations. I am genuinely pleased for you!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Selma! x
DeleteClare! I am thrilled for you :D I know a big cat would whisk you up.
ReplyDeletemuch love
ps
ReplyDeleteI can see where you live! though, maybe you don't mind? (you never know who lurks.... ....)
