Post-project burden!


Well -it has happened again, as it always does: Upon completion of a project –in this case the recording of the audiobook mentioned in my last post– I have come down with something, namely the flu. It is really quite amazing how the body manages to postpone a bout of sickness until the time is right –when one’s days are no longer filled with the focus of the project. Even as I recorded the last lines of the looooooooooong book (it clocked in at 29 hours) I could feel the little bug in the back of my nose rearing up self-importantly, ready to pronounce itself, blossom and multiply. I suppose I should be grateful for it having stayed at bay so considerately until the moment I read "the end" –or perhaps it is a matter of subconscious will-power, if there is such a thing. I had looked forward to a few days of calm and peace –instead I have be granted a fever, sneezing fits and bleary eyes. Perhaps the wisest thing would be to defy the bug by throwing myself straight into a new project -now that’s a cunning scheme!
