A Writing Holiday in Leisure Bay

I just returned to Joburg after a week in Leisure Bay, a seaside community on the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast. I went there to escape Joburg’s cold, dry winter, and also to work on my memoir, which has been languishing for several months.

A 2Summers Memoir Progress Report

A few months ago, I wrote in a blog post that I was finally working on writing my memoir. Like, for real this time.

“I’ve started working on my memoir again, for real. I’ve set myself a strict rule of writing for at least one hour and 500 words per day. It’s a modest goal, to be sure, but in the past five days I’ve written 3801 words. For the first time in a while, I feel truly confident in my ability to complete this book.” -Heather Mason (pretentiously quoting herself), February 2021
