Emily Benet: Camino de Mallorca - Walking to Magaluf
http://emilybenet.blogspot.com/2015/05/camino-de-mallorca-walking-to-magaluf.html
Tuesday, 19 May 2015. Camino de Mallorca - Walking to Magaluf. When I tell people I don't know how to drive, their eyes widen in surprise and I can see them trying to resolve the problem. You'll have to get a motorbike then," they say. I used to enjoy the idea of riding a Vespa over the cobblestones of some idyllic Italian town, but now I'm convinced I'd be a danger to myself and everyone else. Does your husband drive?

Emily Benet: May 2015

Thursday, 28 May 2015. New Home, New Novel, New Job. Old Fear. No more internet cafés for me, I am now fully connected at home! Does Mallorca feel like. Last night on the plane back from doing a job in London, I overheard a mother explaining to her little son that they'd be staying in a hotel. I bet half the passengers would be heading off to holiday accommodation. It made me smile. I like my new home. My inner voice whines. This novel isn't commissioned, so I could spend a year on it and never find a pu...

Emily Benet: January 2015
http://emilybenet.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, 30 January 2015. No Fear of Missing the Plane? I'm not afraid of flying, I'm afraid of missing the plane. On the days I have to fly, my shoulders freeze level with my ears, my stomach turns to jelly and I relive all those near misses of my childhood.

Hopefully we'll meet on the other side! That joke just isn't funny people! I like f...

It is hosted by Southwark Arts Forum. And there are still places left for this Wednesday 1st April. If you would like to attend. One thing I love about Twitter is how engaging people can be. Today.
