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 3 Scene 1.3

The Gentlemen Rankers depart Ain Seffra and meet the French Foreign Legion

link to Google Drive Gentlemen Rankers Chapter 3 Scene 1.3

The French Foreign Legion pretty much began its illustrious history in Algeria. I think these pics are fairly accurate.

Richard Rassendyll turns up again. Here a re three more takes on what he might look like.



 Errol Flynn (left) and David Niven (right) shared a flat in the early days of Hollywood. They appeared in several films together. I think the Flynn might be a bit closer to my Rassendyll.








Douglas Fairbanks jnr is another contended. He is seen here as Rupert of Henzau from the Prisoner of Zenda - a suitably devil may care role.
