A lot like Natalie Imbruglia and a little like Charles Darwin!!

I finally met the Boosh

I met the cast of award winning series The Mighty Boosh at the ICA in London on Monday. I even got to interview them... well i asked one question which they all answered in turn. They were really nice and down to earth, and instead of making a quick exit they stuck around in the bar to chat with us only for them to watch us leave as we made our way to the London eye which gave us an amazing view at night.

Short Stories

I haven't written much of my novel lately as I have been busy setting up character profiles for my 5 main characters. Two of the male characters are completed on paper and the rest are in my head waiting to reach the big screen.
I have also been hooked on my short story writing. I went onto Cally's website http://www.callytaylor.com/ and had a go on Cally Taylor and Sally Quilford's short story generator which I think is genius. I struggle when it comes to deciding who or what to write about and now I don't have to. The setting I was given was a Telephone Exchange and I remembered my mum telling me that my Aunt worked their many years ago so I decided to ask a few questions:

What was the name of the place where you worked?

Did men and women work there? Was it mostly women or men? Were there a lot of people working there?

Can you describe what the building smelled like (if any particular smells)

Was it noisy - if so what were the noises (people talking etc)?

Did you enjoy working there?

What did the place look like (messy, cluttered, large spaces or small)

Was there a uniform?

When did you work there?

Did it pay well at the time?

Was it a strict or relaxed atmosphere

What was your job title

Any stories/anecdotes?

I'm looking forward to the response. I think it will give my story a lot more authenticity.

Guess who's playing Becky Bloomwood

Not sure I can picture it. This article is quite old so apologies if someone has already posted about this. This is news to me however, I didn't even know they were making the movie!!!

Oh my god I feel like Carrie Bradshaw

I am so so happy. I am actually lying in bed writing my blog on my new laptop. I feel like Carrie from Sex and the City only without all the cigarette smoke. My wonderful family bought me this genious creation for my twenty ahem seventh birthday today. I can now write in my room without getting distracted by the 300 channels in the living room where my main computer is set up (tiny bedroom you see). Anyways its been an exciting and tiring day for me so Il sign off until next time.

Short story, Subway and Synopsis

I am just tidying up the punctuation in my short story for the children's writing competition. I have the hangover from hell as I sit and write while waiting for my lovely boyf to return with my Subway. I am feeling positive about the message my story promotes and its not too cheesy sounding. Anyway I shall get this finished today and then return to the novel writing. I seem to have hit a stumbling block here as I came to the end a little too fast. This was the problem with having to write the synopsis for the Miss Write comp. I'd rather have let it flow more instead of knowing what was going to happen so early on. Oh well I'm sure I'l enjoy getting my character to her final destinaion. I have also made a good start with my folder of work. Everything is all in one place now and I look forward to seeing it grow.
