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 year

2014. Right. Well I'm ever going to get my story finished I had certainly better get something done in the next 12 months. All my resolutions will be towards doing this. I had better get my first draft finished and get through the 1st rewrite. That's the one that is supposed to get the plot right.
I think that I'm about 70 thousand words in with about another 30 to write. A the moment I struggle to do 1000 a week. Actually only the RWC keeps me on track for that.
If there is one single thing holding me back it's simply not writing enough. Yes, it IS a bit galling that Y is right about me wasting time online.
I am going to have to manufacture time. How much though, I wonder.
