September,
for me, is the perfect month to embrace those new adventures, start a new
academic course either online or at night school, or begin a health regime that will keep you mentally and
physically fit during the winter. It’s a month of crisp weather, the promise of
home grown apples and blackberries, and let’s not forget the oodles of back to
school stationery just waiting to be purchased.
For
years I put off getting started, not just with my writing projects, but with my
health, and wellbeing. I would grumble about my muffin top and back fat but
then demolish a cream bun at the local coffee shop. I would tell myself that ‘this
year’ was when I’d finally write that book. Year after year I did this until finally, something clicked – I was only letting
myself down.
