April Blog Challenge 22nd-24th April

I am so happy to be back in Georgian Dymchurch now Phoebe has returned from Wissant! Yesterday (in my writing) I went to St Peter and St Paul's Church which I love. It was even smaller back in 1762, without the extra aisle you can see to the left of the photo. In those days, the tower appeared to almost stand on its own, more like St Clements at Old Romney. This is why it was St Clements used for the filming of Dr Syn, which is the same era as my novel. My favourite part of the church is the Norman archway between the nave and chancel. As soon as I step into a Marsh church I love the smell of old stone and wood. I guess it reminds me of the National Trust property which I lived in when I was growing up.
In the last few days I have completed another chapter and made corrections to two chapters. With only about five chapters to go before I reach my 80,000 word goal, it is time to start planning. Up to now I have just seen where the characters take me, although I always have their main challenges in mind. In this novel there has been the initial event/incident (I can't say what) and working through it, some personal challenges for Harry and Phoebe, and rather a nasty character hanging about to make trouble. With the end in sight, I have also contacted a proof reader.
The last few days have been all writing and no workshop preparation, but now I would like to make some worksheets for the summer holiday sessions. It is a constant juggling act!
