Right, a major thanks to every reply i've had on my first ever forum post!!
Making baguettes at work today and suddenly threw everything on the counter due to a massive brain wave!! Randomly thought of what I beleive is gonna be a great story for ATLEAST a triology of books Vaguely discussed it with my mum, not giving too much away and she's pretty excited for me.
So i'm going to take all of your advice in hand and will try and start this out on my larry.
Fingers crossed that I wont punch my laptop in frustration as alot of research in going to be needed to give my characters a believable structure, but ive jotted down enough for a decent plot.
So thanks to you guys for suggesting I try this with just me, myself and brain. Its definately broke of from what I expected to write about but still involves the weird and wonderful.

And yes please to those blog links!

Ok. Hello!
I am 22 years old and am stuck in a job as a chef. I enjoy the work and the people I work with but am not passionate about working with food. (Only eating it)
I have always been a natural at creative writing, apparently! At 13 I made my english teacher cry in front of the class whilst I was reading out a short story I made as homework. All about wild horses fighting to the death, who could also talk. Says alot about my childhood huh.
She even called my mum to tell her how moving it was. Shame I hated the teacher with a passion but it was pretty satisfying to see her weep!
I havent written anything creative wise since then but do write alot better than I speak, hopefully that means something is still there to work with.
Sorry to ramble on. The point is, these courses cost money and I want to know if they are really worth the time. I have plenty of ideas but need tutoring in how to create suspense, twists, turns and plotting in general. If all was to go well I was going to branch off into tutoring in Myths & Legends and Crime writing.
I have made a teeny tiny step by going to the worlds top Witchcraft museum and taking plenty of notes regarding all things supernatural.
My interests definately lie there. The normal world is just way too boring & predictable.

Hope people can advise and possibly share their experience in a similar sit.

Cheers!
