Today appears to have been full of avoidences !
I see from the dictionary, that the origin of the word is from Old French evuider "clear out' 'get rid of' from 'vuide' empty (see void)
And yet the clearing up of the working space, and knowing I was putting of tackling the next BLOG, is I now see one and the same.
The very act of clearing out the work space allowed me to think. While I was occupied in this mundane and necessary task there was aother part of the brain that went on thinking.
I did look at void among other things, it tells me.
an emptiness caused by the loss of something
And the loss of something is very much the loss/lack of confidence a fear of putting words down for all to see.
Even the dreaded supermarket shoping trip, produced results. Two packets of thin white card for the price of one, for the Al-Mutanabbi Street project.
Here again I am aware of my reluctance, to share or as it feels 'broadcast' the struggles I am having with this project. Am I wanting to keep it a secret because I am afraid some one may copy my idea, and/or is it I want the finished piece/book to make an impact ? If I share the work on line as I progresses, will it some how deminish the impact I am hoping for ?
