Procrastination par excellence!
Well I have been procrastinating like fury this morning. I am normally quite good at self motivation, but after coming back from our trip I have found it hard to get back into working on the PhD. I'm hoping to have the rewrite of chapter two finished today which is very close to completion. I wonder how do many writers and academics get motivated? Or is this just a necessary lull that everyone experiences after returning from an exciting trip? I really enjoy this aspect of self motivation to do with writing and my life in general. I'm fortunate enough to be a bit pigheaded and determined when it comes to creative work - enough to usually finish projects anyway. I find if I sit at my desk and keep trying I usually can get back into writing.

Hiya, Noticing another posting today I was gonna give you some grief about procrastination but I think you're already more than aware of it. I hope you've settled into some writing now (not posting). Yeliz has checked out our blogs and thinks that I lookl a bit like Kylie Minogue in my pic. Ha!
Thanks for your comment! After I posted that I went for a walk then came back took some more notes then wrote 500 words and got a decent amount of editing work done. I have now got the rewrite of chapter two to a state that I'm happy with. I don't know if you look like Kylie Minogue, but you do look fabulous! I've also found a little ownership counter that you should probably place on your blog somewhere.
