Welcome

This blog is just to record my experience of writing a story. That is something I have wanted to do all my life. I guess it is now or never.

I am just doing it for fun. I do not really intend to publish it. Mind you, I shall give that a try if I ever get it finished :).

The blog is only intended for me to keep a diary of my thoughts and for some of my close friends, especially those at the Richmond Writers' Circle (bless them for their patience).

If you have found your way here by accident, comments are welcome - especially the kind ones.

If you are, like me, attempting to write your first novel, please share the ups and downs.

Spoilers

Inevitably a blog such as this will contain spoilers. Over the last decade or so I have been impressed by people's resistance to spoilers. Even quite young children seem to be adamant about them. They want to experience the story as the writer created it without any preconceived ideas. Now in truth it is a bit pretentious of me to even think about spoilers in the case of my story, written by an amateur and unlikely to be finished let alone published. A spoiler for The Gentleman Rankers is not going to be in quite the same class of calamity than one for a Harry Potter novel, is it? Nevertheless, I shall try wherever I can remember to flag spoilers in advance. Oh yes, and I nearly forgot - probably no one will ever read this blog either.
