When Florida Key Began

It was back in November 2016 that I began writing Florida Key.

I had a rough idea in my mind as to some of the elements to the story. But it was one thing to have ideas in the head - a very different thing to begin actually working on it.

I was fortunate that I had a nice place to go and write - the place in Montolieu, France - known as The Village of Books.

If I couldn't get creative there, I wouldn't manage it anywhere.

Here, after 2,400 words down, I was invigorated, and felt I'd done a good day's work.

It certainly beat doing painting and decorating.
