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.

Chapter 2 Scene 6

n uneasy return from Scotland

\link to Google Drive Chapter 2 Scene 6

I haven't a lot to say about this scene. Its purpose is to set up future conflict.

I was a bit disappointed that the train South was not then called the Flying Scotsman. The Scotch Express doesn't have the same ring to it. The Flying Scotsman was famous when I was young partially because I think someone had made a speeded up film of the journey.


 By 1904 the Scotch Express had a dining car and a corridor. The meal break stop was no longer necessary. I forget how the journey took - getting on for 12 hours I should think.
