I love train journeys because you can legitimately stare out the window... and you never know what you might see.<br />Lovely interview.Rhoda Baxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15681013163953114917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-74096230483893395062016-09-06T10:16:06.626+01:002016-09-06T10:16:06.626+01:00I value Watford Writers at which I have made frien...I value Watford Writers at which I have made friends who offer me valuable advice and constructive critiques.<br /><br />It's so useful for you to have so many experiences which you can use in your novels.<br /><br />As for me, I'm a historian at heart so I'm buried in my historical fictionRosemary Morrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11246565740097088493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-90075656794656746962016-09-05T16:24:30.765+01:002016-09-05T16:24:30.765+01:00I am sure we have discussed liquorice before and m...I am sure we have discussed liquorice before and my need to nibble as I write. You had a perfect job as far as I am concerned. Ah Sky. Many moons ago (about 1989 I think) we (hubby and I) produced rock nights at the London Hippodrome (and many other venues) as well as managing artists. We were asked by the club to spend a year researching for a new medium, Satellite TV and to record a series of programmes filmed inside the club in the then Star Bar...oh those early days. In the end the shows were never broadcast but we had fun producing them. NaNo is a fab way to learn about deadlines - I have done two. Yep, gazing in to space is something I do a lot....not sure how productive it is but it looks as if I am engaged in some activity or other...good luck for your future writing.

Bit of a slog, but hopefully worth it.Maggie Cammissnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-43149715580942252492016-09-05T15:23:31.894+01:002016-09-05T15:23:31.894+01:00Sounds like we had a very similar writing journey....Sounds like we had a very similar writing journey. My first books were almost autobiographical as well, concentrating on my time in military uniform. And I credit my writing critique group with helping me polish the story and get through the rewrite process. I've tried NaNoWriMo a couple of times but none successfully. November is not a good writing month because it ends with a big holiday in the U.S. and I often end up going out of town to be with family, but getting into that 1,500 word plus a day habit is great when it kicks in. Good luck with it this year!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16238465431305785396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-25581025460108383412016-09-05T15:21:54.481+01:002016-09-05T15:21:54.481+01:00Thanks for having me ElaineThanks for having me ElaineMaggie Cammissnoreply@blogger.com
