Prosperous soul in the making

Well done on writing a book! What's it about? (I'm new here)

Hi MF The garden isn't huge and I have probably started way too much seed. But hey we live and learn.

Hello and welcome WhySeaEm. I have written a Young Adult fantasy story as part of a series.

JWIL I will pm you the details. Well I bit the bullet and registered a company and bought another website and hosting package. I will now set up an author site to try and build engagement and get people to sign up for email etc. I will let you know how I get on.

Determined that I will be be all set to go live in the next 10-14 days.

My insect mesh arrived so draped it over plants for now

Wow, well done SH! That sounds like huge steps forward on the book front within a couple of days. Would an author profile on something like Goodreads help? 

Can you use any extra seedlings in pots? I’ve grown lots of cornflowers so have rows of cornflowers at the allotment and extras have gone into pots at home.

Great news that you're moving forward with the book, exciting times!

That's a big step forward with your book and setting up everything else with it. You will need to celebrate the first sale and mark the occasion after 10, 100, 1000 etc!

With careful planting you can make good use of your space and better to have too many on the go than not enough, sometimes the little ones are just not going to be viable and so you have back ups 😊

Thanks guys. I tidied up my book ending and I think my book is about ready to upload. So currently doing the pre-marketing work. Trying to get my website up and running with a separate email address to use just for my writing.  Also looking at inst@m / pin****t and similar as TBH I hate most social media but take loads of photos as I go through life. Debating whether to set up a separate bank account - may use Rev0lut as its free for low transactions and fairly cheap thereafter. I could then use the same account for craft stuff. I need to finish all my ID checks for my new company but that includes photos!!!! so before I do - I want DD to dye my hair as far too much grey is showing! I did manage to get a bowl and brush from Mr A the other day which should help.

I have spent a lot of money in a short amount of time so hope it pays off but I have to stop falling at the same hurdle and go for it. I confess to having put it on my CC until after payday....

Didn't get to the hair dye. I am however pleased to report I have lost 12lb since 9/4/20 am. So I am going to up my target to 21lb. No  money news. I think a CC goes out tomorrow. I didn't do anything in the garden yesterday as there was a chill wind despite it being bright. I have a coupl of strips of lettuce I could potentially plant out under netting. I also haven't secured my netting very well so if the weather holds off from raining may go out later and sort that. Now going to sign on to work and see how I go. 

If I stick to elevating my legs while at a computer and doing bobs and bits in the garden my pain levels are definitely improving. I debate whether to take the third lot of tablets and have already dropped the fourth. Will try and get out with DH and the dog later to see if my walking is any better. Hard to know pottering around the house. I think my weightloss will definitely be helping with that.
