It probably is a bit of a cautionary tale today, but maybe the most important of all. What I must do is walk I know that sounds obvious, but I have the most sedentary occupation, so it is absolutely vital – for my eyes and for my joints – to peel myself away from the desk every 40/45 minutes or so, to reboot my thoughts, stretch my limbs, and give my eyes a rest ?
I read somewhere that Jeffrey Archer goes for a long walk every couple of hours. I do that too. These shorter breaks are when I rehydrate – another necessity.
I’m lucky really – having the attention span of a gnat, I never really got the measure of a ‘proper’ camera, so mobile phones have been an absolute boon to me. I love recording images that are special to me, to share with you as I walk through the Yorkshire countryside.
Photography gives me every reason to notice the world I inhabit, as well as the world in my head! Healthy to have a good balance of the two, I’m sure you’ll agree!
So: exercise, observation, hydration, and, last but not least, of course, a lovely companion to take those walks with ?
Keep your eyes peeled for a special Christmas surprise and a contest to go with it, coming soon!
Clue: it might have something to do with these guys ?
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone❣️
Love Susan xx
My guess is that you have paper books and doing giveaway. I look out for your newsletter.
I love your photos of lovely Yorkshire and of your dog she is lovely.
Would you like to see the polo series in paperback, Shell? There is a feeling that ebooks are waning and paperbacks are coming back. I would love to know your thoughts on this, and those of your fellow reviewers xx
Me personally I would love to have the polo players in paperback, just to have Diego in paperback make my heart flutter (sighs)…I will ask my fellow reviewers and see what they think. XXX
Thank you, Shell. I really appreciate your thoughts. It really helps me to know what readers and reviewers think, and this is definitely something I will consider xxx
