As good as a rest.Entry #493871
Proverbially, a change is as good as a rest, and it seems that in this case it is true. I was getting nowhere with my children's story - I'm still where I was last November, chapters titles and nothing else. So, I decided to do a little work on my "Mountains of the Mind" story, just for a change of scenary. Less than a week later, I had written the complete first draft of "Mountains of the Mind" - except now it is called "Mindscape", and I have changed the ending. I also changed quite a lot of the middle. I wrote the whole thing in one go without even making out a detailed plot list.

I've put the completed story in my portfolio and, although it needs a lot of polishing, it has given my confidence a real shot in the arm. I've proved to myself that I can sit down at the keyboard and just start writing. I feel much more confident about carrying on with "Mark & Ta'caal" now. Watch this space!
