Hello peeps hope you are all well and happy and enjoying life. I am here and there, very busy, hating my job and working at my OU course. Keeping busy. But I have a dilemma, as the title of this blog indicates. No, I'm not faking a lack of inspiration but I am uninspired by fiction. How has this happened?
