About Me

My photo
They say life begins at 40, but I've often wondered who the mystical 'they' are, I'm going for Druids personally, what about you? Despite working in Insurance all my years and still do, I crave a change with more independence for my working day and also greater excitement, which I'm hoping writing will create. So I'm donning my creative hat and jumping in with two big feet. I welcome all and your comments, though please keep it civil. I'm also very interested to link with fellow writers to shoot the breeze.

Getting Started

As a prospective new writer in a modern world, I felt it time to consider 'A Blog', seems to be the new fangled way of putting your views and personality out there.

So here I am, 40 and embarking on a new, exciting and hopefully rewarding new chapter, where success and millions lie ahead when my new best seller gets published!!!!

Or perhaps just the odd tenner here and there for a story or poem sold to Old Coggers Weekly or Teen Chavs  Daily, whichever I've picked up that week for a competition.

A shout out must go to my Writers Club, Ayr Writers Club, http://www.ayrwritersclub.co.uk/, first and foremost full of like minded good natured people of some considerable talent, who if you are an aspiring writer in the Ayrshire area, could do worse than coming along to one of the Wednesday night meetings, see the website for more details.

As for today, it is chilly but blue skied and dry outside, chores to be done with possibly a little creativity if my mind can summon it later on.
