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.

A new start!

Finally, I've got myself started again! This is good for me - usually when I give up on something I stay given up. This time I'm going to be a bit less ambitious.

The good thing is that I did persevere with the story. I now have about 35,000 words of first draft. So I'm about a third of the way towards the sort of length that publishers are suppose to prefer. I've decided to press on if I can and at least have a go at getting it published. There are a few people at the Richmond Writer's group in much the same boat so that is, in a way, encouraging.
