When you’re really busy and need to focus all your energies into one project, the thing you don’t want is a major distraction…
Oops.
When Jenny mentioned The Wake to me last week, I knew it was going to be right up my street. I should really have exerted some self-discipline and resisted it. But there you are, look what turned up in the post this morning.
I now have to be extremely strict with myself. Stitch – read – stitch, stitch, read…

Dreaming In Stitches 
Part of my family are from Lincolnshire so maybe I should have a read too. Perhaps you should have ordered the talking book version so you can stitch and read at the same time! Hope you enjoy it – it has great reviews.
Good point! I used to have a lot of talking books for when I was driving very long distances for work, but I haven’t had one for ages now.
I know how you feel, I just bought this today but I have to finish writing a report first. Hope you enjoy if, from what I’ve glanced at so far it looks really good.
Ahh, great minds and all that! Yes. just started it and seems excellent. Let me know what you think at the end.
Reading is not a distraction – all the other stuff of life is a distraction from reading!
Absolutely!
Look forward to hearing more about this, Anny! 🙂
It’s written in a pseudo-Old English – not nearly as tough as that sounds, quite easy to get your mind around, but I’m reading it at bed-time when just lately I’ve been managing about ten minutes before I’m asleep, so slowish progress – I’ll tell more once I’ve read it all.
…and i buy cookbooks…i need a “wake-up” call….
All book-buying in good for me! Enjoy!
