A very busy couple of weeks. I’m polishing the remaining third of my second novel, a psychological thriller, and am waiting to hear back from an editor on the first, same genre.
Meanwhile, I gave a piano recital a couple of weeks ago with works by Chopin, Mozart and Liszt. Received more than £200. Not bad going, but doesn’t compare with the hundreds/thousands some artists get. I’m currently working towards another recital and learning three of the Chopin nocturnes.
Not much time for photography.





“Not much time for photography”? Sounds like you haven’t had enough time for a decent meal or any sleep. But, hey, keep up the good efforts. They WILL pay off.
Thanks, tikiman! I have actually stayed up extra late a couple of times to continue writing, but otherwise I’ve been fine and relaxed.
Best wishes,
Lawrence
Hello Lawrence – came here via your link the forum we are both posting on.
My children really enjoy creating things or turning hymns from major to minor … it’s always a joy to listen to them having fun in that way.
We enjoy much of the works of Chopin … my oldest son used to play a lot of his things but it really became a stumblingblock for him, so he chose to put it away. I miss hearing him play Chopin, but am much more thankful to have a son walking with the Lord. I seem to have no problem (it’s not a stumblingblock for me) but of course I am not that good at playing and do not have time anyway. I do appreciate sitting down and playing hymns from time to time
Bach would be another favorite … really appreciate the Goldberg Variations and Inventions.
Lord bless you, Joanne in MO (usa)
Thanks, Joanne. I’m working on a Bach piece at the moment.
You are very talented. Best wishes on the 2nd novel
