Story *Finally* Underway

At last, one day before my 15th birthday, I have started writing Caution To The Winter Wind. And, so far, it's going okay. It's nice to come back to it, after writing a draft a month or so ago, but it's all pretty fresh, with a few sentences and phrases dropped in from the last attempt. The best thing though is to finally get it all down, the characters and events and personalities and so on... At last, it feels like the research is paying off - though I don't mind continuously learning about the American West :)
So far, I've written the first two sections of the first Part (there now being five Parts instead of the previously planned three) and have just started the third section. The dialogue is especially fun to write and hopefully, it's pretty accurate - I've been watching enough Westerns hopefully ^^ Though don't trust some Westerns with accuracy!
It's a very nice birthday present certainly to finally start the writing! I'll post some when the first Part is done, I guess.
