On the edge of a cliff

it's been a while since I graduated from uni so I haven't written an essay since then. Before Christmas I did a subject leaders course at school funded and accredited by Liverpool John Moores Uni. I decided (foolishly) to sign up to write the 4000 word essay and receive 20 credits.

The essay is due in, in three weeks so far no words have been written due to lack of time and motivation but a big part of me wants to do this for me. So now having spent a morning finishing some reading and trying to be analytical and reflective, traits which don't come easily to me I am about to put fingers to keys (pen to paper sounds better somehow). I literally feel like I am on the edge of a cliff and if I jump and actually write the essay i will have achieved something for me...it remains to be seen, will keep you posted.

Why is it so hard to get stuff written when you're out of practice? 2 weeks of holiday and I've forgotten how to write a literacy plan that doesn't take all afternoon to do! I haven't managed to get a single thing written yet, just read through all the framework and pondered on it!

A portfolio for 20 credits seems like a much more preferable option to me!
