The period between October and February are filled with looming deadlines at the paper including the Christmas Issues, seasonal shows and the annual make-up and costume feature that precedes the International Make-up Artist Trade Show. Add to this the Off-West End Awards and a personal life and you are close to understanding the long space between a languid weekend in Belfast that already seems light years away and IMATS on February 4.
Please understand that I am not complaining, by any stretch of the imagination. I love the work I do and feel honoured at the opportunities I have been given over the last few years. It is just at this time of the year I usually begin to loose focus and have to gather my thoughts before heading forward. I suppose that this is the real time for a holiday and in fact, I have booked a few days off.
I shall try to make the most of it, although it now contains two feature deadlines, a visit to the Landor to see Lucky Stiff, a visit to Catford to see Romeo & Juliet, the IMATS show and the Off-West End Awards Ceremony.
Hopefully I will be able to get some painting done too.....
