It was a very good day. Lots of work done, encouragement and laughter. The Cariad group are/is awesome.
Personally – yes, I was still in my fluffy purple dressing gown for the first session. Author note – the colour purple was not a real choice – all that was available in the M&S sale! I was dressed and respectable for the other sessions. Well – I was dressed.
Work. I settled down with some blank sheets of paper and a slightly blank mind. Happy to report that some progress was made. My protagonists from what may be Riviera 4.5 (Novella) and Riviera 5 (Book) were prepared to talk to me and I understand them better now. Hero Mickey reminds me of Devlin in Never Coming Home. The strong silent type. I made some headway in sorting out the direction of travel for the plot(s).
Still some way to go, and I have to get Riviera 4 on the road before anything serious happens. Then we shall see if I can make it all work.
