\"NewsThe school holidays are underway, which means less headspace for writing but more time to get my house in order. As a work-at-home mum, I usually find the best way to manage my stress levels during this time are to simply come to terms with the fact that I’ll get less work done – and to plan for that accordingly – but to fit in other housekeeping tasks where I can.<\/p>\n

On the list are things like:<\/p>\n

A) tidy my workspace so that it looks something I could possibly share<\/em> for a ‘where I write’ meme (at present, you’d be hard-pressed to find my desk)<\/p>\n

B) continue to update the back end of my blog, organising eight years of blog posts into something vaguely approaching order<\/p>\n

C) posts like this one, in which I’ll bring together all the bits and pieces of news I’ve shared on social media.<\/p>\n
