Light bulb moment
Have just had an idea for an entertaining website/blog - the 'no holds barred' kind on which others can post their own comments, and nothing to do with my writing.
Am hoping that my TFG (Wendy Woo) will be able to sort me out with the necessary techie stuff! I've got the title and the first post on hold in my head.
Current book is over the trauma of the build up to the 'denoument' now and I am on the straight fast run to the end - I always find this a bit of a thrill - all that speed, and then that unexpected dangerous bend one hasn't allowed for, and which could throw the whole thing and cause a major disaster.
Come on though ending - I'm already gearing up for the excitement of a new book and a new start.
AND I've found the perfect paint for the bedroom!
I'm going to have lunch with a neighbour today. She's a designer in metals and she is holding a display of her work this weekend, so I think champagne might be a good idea pre lunch!
THE SCARECROWS ARE STILL COMING - It says so on a sign at the end of the road. I must ask her what on earth this means!
Interestingly (to me at least) her house was used to hold internees during the Second World War. My upcoming sagas are set in that period, so I must find out a little bit more!
For me one of the really enjoyable parts of my writing is the research. Trouble is I get so involved in it, that what I'm supposed to be looking for gets overlooked.
