Lost in writers space

Post: # 86416Post yugogypsy »

Hello All,

If you've noticed I've been "missing" from the boards, please excuse, I've been writing.

I started a novel 20 years ago :lol: and suddenly, just before Christmas, the ending for it came to me.

And its a very self-sufficient ending too, with all my characters living on a 60 acre farm with lots of livestock and a garden.

So I am having fun with it and will be at it for a while yet.

Take Care
:cheers: Lois

I still haven't finished the story I had in my head 2 and a bit years ago - it involved murder down the allotment (how to dispose of the body - lime? plant raspberry canes on top, etc... even considered shredding...) but only got as far as setting the scene for the murder...

Good luck

Yay - go Yugo - hope it's very successful for you! You'll have to let us know when it's published so we can buy a copy!!
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Well Ina,

I started with a local fishboat, and its gone on from there, now in part 2 the characters are turning to farming :mrgreen: because fishing is dying (which it is here :( )

So I modeled my characters on the boat owners :lol: and brought in a few more boats and owners, now I'm off again and can re-write part 1.

I've been taking a break to recharge my batteries after 6 days of writing morning, noon and night :lol:

:cheers: Lois
