Was I alive today?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes. The best part was being outside in the drizzle and walking around the area.<\/p>\n

What new things have I discovered about life?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can still take a breather right at the end.<\/strong> The publisher\u2019s preview \u2013 essentially a preview of the titles we\u2019ll be publishing over the coming months \u2013 has to go to print tomorrow. It\u2019s always an enormous amount of work. Titles and subtitles have to be agreed precisely with the authors, ISBN numbers have to be assigned, covers designed, and descriptions found for books that haven\u2019t even been written yet. Usually four or more people work on it \u2013 and if you count the authors, far more still. Everything has to be just right. In the end, the graphic designer and I put the finishing touches to it. There are often eight or ten versions of the preview before everything is just right.<\/p>\n

I took an hour\u2019s break at lunchtime anyway and popped to the optician\u2019s to have my eye checked (better safe than sorry \u2013 the optician couldn\u2019t see any injury under the magnifying glass). And then I just went for a short walk in the drizzle. And my graphic designer took an hour\u2019s break later in the afternoon. I\u2019m proud of us for still making sure we maintain a balance, even in the midst of all the stress. Next time, however, it might make sense to agree on our breaks and take them at the same time\u2026.<\/p>\n

What new things have I learnt about myself?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I suppose I wasn't born to be a candle-maker.<\/p>\n
