Would you mind awfully if I neglected you all for a day or two? I am so knackered after the intensive business of finishing my next book that I need a few days off. I didn’t sleep at all on Sunday night as I was determined to get the manuscript onto my publisher’s desk for Monday morning and I really haven’t caught up yet.
I have some other stuff going on which is filling up my head as well and I just need to stop and, more critically, to catch up on the housework which hasn’t been done for Some Time. If I tell you that I’m finding it difficult to get dressed in the morning because of the abominable heap of black clothing on my bedroom floor, which is also preventing me from getting to the ‘other clothes’ that have actually made it to the wardrobe, you will begin to get a sense of my domestic decay.
I am away at the weekend but I will schedule a Sunday poem. Shall we get metaphysical?
