   I'd just read the last page or two and then write the next bit. Don't go back to the start.

   Same as Colm really. I just reread the last scene and then crack on. You can fix the rest later.

   what works for me: open the book, write one sentence, then close it. next day two sentences. you're not allowed to write more than that. after a few days you really want to write more, and then you're back into it

   i find the history calendar helps. once you get a few coloured days after the blank ones you feel better about the gap

   Tried this today. Wrote one sentence on my break. It wasn't a good sentence, but it's done. Thank you, Nell.

   I wasn't on here yesterday, Ada. It was two years since Gareth died. I'm glad you're writing again, that's all I wanted to say.
   God bless, Ruth

   Thank you for telling me, Ruth. I'm sorry, two years isn't long. I hope you had people around you yesterday.
