All occupations have hazards, and one that I particularly dread in my line of work is for anything to go wrong with an eyeball.
Unfortunately this week I have been stricken in the orb department, and try as I might, I couldn’t see much of what I was trying to do with this week’s LWI article to share with you guys. So rather than post photos of the chickpeas I took shots of last week for my recipe book, in the misguided belief that they are in fact the screenshots I took for what I was planning on sharing today, I thought I’d post something that you might enjoy having a look at and discussing in the comment section.
I really enjoyed Steven Pressfield’s book, The War of Art, so much so that I heartily recommend it to all writers and creatives. Right now, for a limited time – till 30 June only, he’s offering free copies of his latest book for anyone with access to the link. I downloaded it a couple of days ago, but zooming through it today—with said one remaining strained and not very functional, watering eyeball—I’m not sure that I would recommend it at all. So I’m going to add the link here for any of you who feel like a little discussion about it. It’s quite a short book, but even so, you can pick up quite a bit by just glossing over it. Love it or not, it’s always great to get insights into the thought processes of great authors. I look forward to seeing what you have to say one way or another.

I don’t really like the title, the swearing really puts me off.

Time is precious, Jo! Not interested! The cover & title are not a hook to read further! I might have glanced at the back cover blurb before shelving it though! Hope your eye gets better! Know you have already checked it out with an eye doc! 💛 Elizabeth

Hope your eye gets better soon, Jo. I agree, the title is off-putting.
