    Hey ATC, all a bit meh here, had my hopes up about something (when I shouldn't have really) and its not looking too great now anyway :( Meh. Apart from that, great lol.

    How are you? How's your manuscript coming along? Are you enjoying your holidays?

    Sorry to hear this :( Have you any interests that might help you?
    Nah, this town can't be escaped, no matter how much you immerse yourself in hobbies and the like. Very high suicide rate around here which is pretty worrying. Luckily I should be gone in a few weeks so that'll be good. Until then, I'll languish ITT and continue binge watching old episodes of Peep Show:pac:

    I mean gone as in I'll be out of this town, not dead!

    ooh you're a novelist. I'm actually waiting for a place on an English Lit degree. How's life as a writer?

    awh sorry to hear that :( *hugs* anything we can do to help?


    I'm not too bad thanks, minus a bit of insomnia :( oh well, can take it easy tomorrow. Got a bit of good news though, as my appointment for the migraine clinic in Cork came through (it's in September), been on a waiting list for the past six months so a nice surprise:)

    Manuscript is coming along nicely now thanks :D looking forward to finishing up the first draft and beginning to show family etc. Was scanning photos etc today..

    My holidays are going so quick but really enjoying them :D hopefully heading up to dublin next weekend

    It's most definitely not cool whatsoever, but thanks:D

    Well at least you're doing it without being a barista on the side either. What genre is it? Any books you'd recommend over the summer?

    Thanks, sadly no one can do anything, just one of those things that you have to wait and see how it plays out, I dunno I just don't think this is one of those things that will play out how I'd like it to sadly. Oh well. Maybe I'm wrong but I doubt it tbh.

    That is fantastic knew, I am delighted for you. I hope your appointment goes well :) I have my fingers crossed for you.

    That's amazing, how has their reaction been so far? I can imagine the excitement of it for you, its an amazing achievement.

    Yeah the holidays really do fly by, it'll be Xmas before we know it :eek: :pac: Hope you get to Dublin & have fun there, its a great place :)

    no worries :D

    that's true :) It's nonfiction, basically about living with a disability. Bressie and Marian Keyes's book would be the ones I'd recommend (both are out in the last few months)

    thanks :) hope it goes well too

    thanks :D so far their reaction has been a mixture of excitement for me and getting fed up of my questions (so far they've seen bits of it but not the whole thing). The only one who's read it who's a friend (well at that stage it was about 50k words long) her reaction was along the lines of 'wow!'

    indeed the year is just flying along :eek:

    thanks, should be good :)
