Where've you been?
Hi WYSers!
I'm a little AWOL at present, but for the best reasons... I'm working on a new adaptation of a Sherlock Holmes story (several, actually, rolled into one) which is being produced by OVO theatre company (where I am Creative Producer) at their increasingly famous Roman Theatre festival this summer.
It's been a bit of a slog (as it oftne is), but this past week my favourite thing has happened - the script has started to pull me along with it, rather than me pushing. What do I mean by that? I mean the characters, the story, the style, the way I've decided to tell the story, have come startlingly to life, and are often taking me by suprise as I write. They're maing me gasp, laugh, want to know more. It's a magical moment in any writing project (for me) and I need to stay on the ride with it until this first draft is done.
So, where've I been? So far: Victorian London, the wild expanses of Cornwall, an underground bank vault, to the opera, a quaint tearoom... and many more locations to come.
What about you? Where is your writing taking you?
Happy magical writing!
M :-)
