It has taken nearly 70,000 words to bring my main characters there. And yet, when I wanted to describe the beauty and uniqueness of the island, my mind is filled with sub-plots and how take them back to England to solve a mystery.
It's going to be a quick trip to Corsica. How about you? Is there a place you have travelled to that you want a story set in there?
I loved my first visit to England and have a short story idea set there.
ReplyDeleteGood old England, I like it too Diane, but not the weather.
ReplyDeleteI love to set stories in foreign lands I've visited especially France which I know quite well. I've not been to Corsica. Got to Nice and tried to catch a ferry over but I couldn't get any attention at the ticket booth. Must have been lunch time, lol. So, Corsica, another trip, another time. Thanks for sharing about this lovely place.

That's what I try to do--place my books in exotic destinations. I had to use Jamaica for the setting of my first novel!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Monti

Enid, just letting you know, I hope you didn't misunderstand - we mainly have prose flash fiction on RFWer, but several poets have joined us and post poetry on the theme. It would be wonderful if you could post a snippet of 400 words sometime. Next week's theme is Bouquet.

Denise, you have to cross to Corisca, it's a wonderful place. Monti, I envy all the exotic places you have visited. I want to write a story set in Magnetic Island too. Denise, I will try, with the flash fiction.
