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 2

The gentlemen rankers go to Dover Castle

Link to Google Drive Chapter 3 Scene 2

I can never find a picture of Dover castle that shows it in a more modern light with the rooms and so on that I know to be there.








Dr Lanyon is clearly the son of a a much more famous fictional father. I have made his character very different to that of his father though. Here are some of the actors who I picture when I think of my Dr Lanyon. First though here are two actors who have played him (Lanyon pere)  in movies whose names I never knew or have forgotten.

They sort of fit the bill for a British post war film.- authoritive and conventional.


I'd have, playing my Doctor Lanyon,  perhaps Denholm Elliutt or Stephen Fry (above). But when it came down to it I thought actually that John Hannah was the best fit.
