This morning I began by making my book cover photo more pixelated. ( I don’t know if that’s a word….) And then I managed to download it so it landed at the beginning of my book on Google docs. I was surprised , but delighted…..then it disappeared…..but stayed the second time.

After that I tried to write titles underneath the photos, but gave up after I accidentally deleted one of the photos. ( I got it back….phew!!! )

After a confidence building phonecall to my sister I went onto the FIVERR site on my new laptop where after a lot of stressing I found somebody who I thought would suit me.

I sent a message.

By now it was lunch time.

I was supposed to be painting my new portrait next.

But the postman arrived with the new printer.

I was much too ” teched out” to set it up.

Instead I watched more of Jonathan Yeo’s portrait course .

And then the FIVERR person replied quoting a reasonable price and saying that it was the kind of project he would enjoy doing.

Now I’ve hopefully sent the manuscript in a suitable form and all I need to do is wait.

I can see on my smartwatch that my heart rate is fairly high. I’m not surprised….but I did it.

I said I would and I did , despite a certain amount of procrastination.

The stove is lit. I have a glass of wine and I’ll probably get up early tomorrow and start work on the portraits.

I popped out for some fresh air and photos with my new camera.

Cheers🍷🍷
