I wonder if July could be just a little bit drier? Last year July was really hot, but then it rained all through August. I would like it to be a bit more balanced this summer, preferably with all the rain being at night when I don\u2019t want to go out and play. Although if it is too hot I don\u2019t want to go out and play either. It is a shame we can\u2019t order the weather we want.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m waiting for my mistress to ring me to tell me how her writing conference has gone. I\u2019m just hoping it isn\u2019t going to mean her spending even more hours writing than she has been doing. Oh it\u2019s great that she never goes out. It means I get almost constant company, but when she isn\u2019t actually writing she is talking to me about her ideas. I\u2019m struggling to keep up. I am also somewhat concerned that she is getting very into writing the crime stories. I hope they don\u2019t start getting gory, I don\u2019t really like gory things! I\u2019m not so good when she is discussing the poetry either, particularly if it is serious rather than funny. The worst of it is that she is sending so much work off to competitions and publishers that I know I shall have to be the shoulder to cry on when they all get rejected! I suppose there is always the chance that she might have a breakthrough at last. I had thought about pretending to be a publisher and writing her a nice letter, but she would only be more upset when she realised it is me. Being a writer really isn\u2019t for the sensitive souls! But then no one ever accused my mistress of being sensitive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Well that is June over and done with.
