Writing Update No. 1 - First Story.


This morning I finished my first story written in France. I'm kind of surprised, I was kind of expecting me to mess around for about a month before getting some useful writing done. But, there it is, I finished my first story on (sort of) day two and I have several plans for quite a few more. Actually I also decided on one book I'm going to write at least. I'm sure more about that will follow later. The story will be published on the creative latrine blog somewhere over the next week.

I'm having a bit of an inspiration overload. As it is, I can't quite keep up with the writing. I promised myself to only write one story at a time, but I've got enough ideas for 3/4 stories, 5/6 blog posts and 1 book. Makes it difficult to stay focussed. But so far I've managed. Tomorrow I'm going back to the Netherlands again, since we're leaving for England on Saturday, but I intend to at least keep up some amount of writing. We'll see.

I'm now writing in the shadow of the castle at Jumilhac-le-grand. That one alone has been the inspiration for at least two story ideas so far. I'm fairly confident more will follow, and I'm very confident it will feature in quite a few. It's simply gorgeous! Also, apparently some big time alchemist lived here in medieval times, so that's of course a wonderful background for stories.

The Castle - There are 11 completely different towers and there is unlimited story potential.

I haven't even been inside yet, but I'm expecting lots of wonderful awesomeness.

Which is cool.

I like awesomeness, especially the wonderful kind.
