Finally put pen to paper over the last few days....

I've been staying with a friend's family down the coast for a few days and have not had access to the Internet.  It's been a blessing because I haven't been able to spend hours researching and I actually wrote a few pages and got a bit of a flow happening.  I just need to keep it up and refrain from researching or writing on here!  Another friend of mine told me I don't have to be that factual and that because it's a fictional story no-one's going to mind if it's not 100% factual.  I can see where she is coming from, and I know she only wants me to be writing rather than researching!

A quick sketch I did at work - not bad either!
This book is all that's been on my mind lately - the other day at work I was drawing with the kids.  I started drawing a poppy (my favourite flower - for obvious reasons) and then the picture just took on a life of it's own and this is the result.  I've not done a 'doodle' this good...ever!  I was very impressed with myself!

Hopefully I'll get some time to type up what I wrote over the last few days and that will get me writing again.  Unfortunately work is going to get in the way!!!  And I have to work, (until I become a famous author - Ha! Ha!) so I hope to be able to get the next three chapters of the novel done before the end of the weekend. 


My Goal:

1. Finish off Chapter 6
2. Edit Chapter 7 (It's finished, just needs a bit of a polish)
3. Write Chapter 8!

Here's hoping I can get it done!
