Bank Holiday Reading

I spent most of today reading through this book:

It’s a wonderful book! The design reminds me of the trendy cookery books that you get nowadays, where the pages are made from lovely thick paper with great illustrations and lots of attention to layout. But beyond the look and feel, it’s a great insight into how ‘proper’ authors write. I’d like to say it inspired me … and it did… but I didn’t actually settle down and write anything. *sigh*.
