But I'm afraid i'm a lost cause - I would see the writing conferences as an excuse to avoid my manuscript - and as for getting a gardener - I'd be too busy gazing out of the window imagining him as my romantic literary hero!

I think it's because I don't really have to 'think' while showering, I'm on auto pilot, wash hair, condition... I can think about my hero - because oh, I tend to fall in love my heroes.
