Well, I started the year by at least doing 1500 words to read at the RWC, perhaps not great words but no worse than usual. So I'm working my way through Chapter 10 which I mean to be a kind of first half finale. Also I sort of know the next bit and have written 380 words so, if I keep that up, I'm at least on course to do my minimum 1300 words for next week. Ideally, of course, I want to get ahead a bit. It's a bit humbling that I've been working on the story for 2 years now and am only about 2/3 of the way through the first draft.
I am trying to focus on the constraint of whatever it is that prevents me from moving on. Right now it is this: I have to introduce Ludens into this scene and it will be to remove the threat of Kali. All I have to think of is an interesting way for it to happen. As a thought generator I threw the picture dice and came up with a key and lightning.
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.
