    Hi Boddaert

    Just wanted to say I didn't mean anything by my tiger comment, the poem had stayed with me for some time so I got reminded of it again. Hope you didn't mind.

    My poem -- http://www.writingforums.com/poetry-...ml#post1464995


    Take care,

    Hi powerskris.

    It's a novel and I'm about 38,000 words in. The last two novels I tried ended up in the bin so don't hold your breath. I'm hoping this time I'll reach the end.

    So, how far are you into the story? Is this a novel, a short story?

    Do I find it inspirational? Hmmm, an interesting question - to which I'd have to answer, not directly. What it does give me is a great feeling o0f relaxation and the time to write, or should I say, perhaps the will to write.

    Tain I have never been there, but I have been to Inverness as I walked the Great Glen way and it ended there. Yes, the Highlands are utterly amazing. I love the mountains and as far as I am concerned the views are beyond compare.

    So, tell me, do you find living there inspirational to your writing?
