hello Internet welcome to a glorious Saturday afternoon here at Royal Clarence Marina I'm just about to go and do some recording in the studio I've got a really nice track going on called um my Tamagotchi or Tamagotchi probably um and I'm really focusing on The rhythms and the drums particularly using a kind of vocal uh in intonation that's very drum like I'm really excited about it actually I'm also going to do some talk speaking is I think that Spiegel isn't it beagle I think that that's what that means it's sort of talking and singing I'll check that for you I should know that I should remember that from University but guys it was a long time ago you know um so yeah the the diet thing I ate my 1100 calories within an hour and a quarter and I do have a little bit of heartburn but that's because I did I performed the cardinal sin which is lying down after food really stupid but I was just uploading stuff to my new internet sites and I'm really excited about everything and I just want to type that type I'm going to really resist that from now on I'm going to get all my uploading done you know earlier in the day and spend the afternoons focusing on music and things that make me stand up and the reason I stand up for the music is because I stand up when I sing I stand up when I play cello I stand up when I do speak talking which is what I'm doing today and I've got some really really nice ideas actually for my new song Tamagotchi so I'd quite like to get it finished today so I'm going to go and do that and um yeah fantastic I feel great I'm in a little bit of heartburn I'm going to have some indigestion stuff just I'm expecting that to bother me a little bit for two weeks and I was reading actually that you can take the Omeprazole um alternate well when and if you know if you don't have heartburn all the time and I don't have it all the time I have it when I eat too much I have it when I lie down for too long I have it when I don't do enough exercise you know so really this afternoon showed me that eating that quantity of food in that hour and a half was a big mistake but as I say I just wanted to get it out the way by three because I don't like eating after three you see so um yeah really successful so far so good enjoyed the 24 hour fast it felt quite exhilarating I enjoyed the um 10 minutes bike ride thing I did this morning on the exercise bike tomorrow I'm going to do the same thing but try and be faster I still haven't got batteries unfortunately so I can't tell if my heart's going faster but we'll be able to see I'll get batteries in the week when I go to the shop um that's just for the you know the speedometer and um oh a cat and it tells you how you know what your pulse rate is and how many miles you've done that sort of thing and I I was quite slow today I mean I could see when I played it back I was pretty pretty darn slow actually so yeah um what else uh well I think that's it really for the for the minute just a very quick update there um I really enjoyed doing all the footage and the videoing I really enjoyed doing all that and I liked to do it all in the morning you know as we get down towards the later day later in the day I quite like doing you know maybe a bit more talking so it was kind of it's working out that it looks like I'll be filming in the mornings and podcasting a bit in the late afternoon is just a little bit of um what fits in with my lifestyle a bit better but literally guys we are going to follow every inch of my day-to-day living very intense and I want it to be very intense I want to look back on this year when I'm 120 to see what it was that I did that changed my life changed my health increased my my lifespan for the better because what I do this year I'm going to do for the rest of my life and that's that's in terms of business as well you know um my my wealth I want to be um I want the seed of my wealth and success to be in this year the real seed of it of course you know I've been working very hard doing lots of things for 20 years 30 years 40 years you you're never an overnight success but this year is going for me to be the special the like the baby bio you know I've been putting baby bio in my um in My Cheese plant and it's really flourished because we've had some lovely Sun Well we haven't actually it's been pissing down here in England it's lovely and sunny now but we've but it's warm you know it's warm and we've had more daylight hours I think that's important and it's been getting baby bio and it's tripled in size you know and this is how I'm looking at my career and my output and my creative Endeavors I've got everything there and now it needs some food so I know how to do everything I'm really experienced now I've perfected all of my crafts you know and now and I've got so much material and it really all just needs tweaking now tweaking for the audience that I've I've created things for myself and now it's time to make it more accessible for the world and that means changing up some of the way I describe things that means changing up you know all the book that I wrote immersion I mean I'm absolutely committed to doing that and we're starting tonight I'm going to me and the robots are actually going to sit down and and work through all the chapters remembering that immersion was initially done as a game you know so it was all in the present tense um the most of the action happened in illustrations that's all changed now it's become entirely a podcast you know all of these things not entirely actually it's also some other things um but I want to make it an engaging place for people to come and and really to take on some old-fashioned values I like old-fashioned values I'm an old-fashioned gal with with a modern spin you know the best way to do it I think so traditional storytelling with lots of interesting contemporary um I would say gadgets but I don't know if they're quite the right way to describe it but you know to come and dive in and think well this is exciting where am I you know to read um I'm committed as well to sharing the joy of literature and we have to be so careful now is it you know I've been an educator for a number of years now music of course um piano cello um but also you know I've done been doing academic podcasts and that you get a sense of responsibility about you know what your what you're presenting to the world and um I'm really focusing on that route particularly with my book immersion presents something that's educational um non-judgmental um I was talking the other day about my chat GP and um and my AI I've got I've got a few AIS that are that I work with and how judgmental they are and you know how curious that is and I'm I'm not sure if judgment equals progress I really I really don't think it does I think what we need is a debate and a lack of judgment and you know if as a Storyteller you're judging from the first sentence I I don't think that's I don't think that's appropriate um I of course I also don't believe it's appropriate to to present readers with unsolicited um irrelevant uh pornographic material and when I say pornograph I don't just mean sexual I mean you know gratuitous violence I like I mean I love a violent movie I really do I and when it says sexual content violence drug taking whatever I think oh yeah this is the one for me I'll watch this one but I don't think as um as somebody who's writing a book that and the book I want to be read by probably about 13 up maybe 16 up and I don't think it's necessary for my story and my storytelling to incorporate the excesses that that you see on the internet now I really don't um but you know that's a stylistic thing from for me as a writer um so yeah I'm really excited about this weekend lots of stuff coming so the book of immersion I'll be sharing a bit more because I'm going to look at a chapter each night and sit and you know sit comfortably in the Boudoir just go through it all keep the TV off it's a bit fatal I've been binge watching about the Tudors and they're so fascinating I mean they were so violent oh my goodness so violent really um loads are swearing as well I quite like that I like a bit of swearing but I've got a potty mouth you see um so yeah anyway I'm feeling great and I'm going to go off to the recording studio and do a big old load of recording ready for my single which I want to be out definitely by Monday okay guys catch you later
