This is my blog where I can write about writing about my stories and my corsets.
Well, not mine, of course, but Will and Kate's - *loved* the dress - sooooo gorgeous, it was sophisticated without being too large or overstated. And they looks so relaxed and comfortable with the whole day - I just thought it was very natural and a happy occasion, like it was just a normal wedding with a few hundred normal guests, rather than 2 *billion* people watching!

Love them both
Inspiration is a funny thing - it comes at the most unusual times. And it is the most important part of a story. I can be sitting, writing away, putting lots of words into my prose, but really not feeling inspired. I sometimes wish I'd been in the era of the typewriter, where I could yank the paper out of the rollers and screw it up into a ball, and throw it across the room at an already full waste paper basket. But, sadly, the last ever typewriter factory has just closed, and I'm not sure it would be very practical - especially as one of my favourite places to write is, as I am now, sitting on the train. But I digress, just a little bit.

But sometimes, I'll just write a few words, but know that I've got an inspired idea. Not always my own - my latest story (have you read it yet?) was inspired by a conversation with my Second Life Miss - she is quite an inspiration to me.

And of course, it helps to draw from my own life, my own experiences and dreams. Alot of what I write probably isn't realistic in real life, but that is the nature of fiction, I guess. If it was, then it wouldn't be fiction. But we can all dream
I appear to be a writer. So, I should be writing daily, really, shouldn't I? Obviously. So, I hope you've seen my writing, so you know something of what I'm about. So, I'm going to try to write something here every day.

So today I'm going to talk about corsets a little - I'm Caza and I'm a corset addict. I've started to wear it daily, almost and today was my first day since over Easter. It was just too hot and I was doing too many things like gardening to wear it. Its easier wear it in a nice air-conditioned office than out and about. So, first thing this morning, I slipped a liner over my tummy, then fastened my corset around my waist. I pulled the laces behind me as tight as I could, and felt my tummy being squished down. I tied the laces in a double bow, and carried on dressing, corset beneath my clothes.

Then it is walking to the station. It feels wonderful, the corset changes how I move, how I walk. I'm taller, my hips sway differently, my posture is good.

But my corset is too loose. Its fully laced shut and only just tight enough. My weight is dropping, and my waist is shrinking, so this won't last long. That makes me happy to be new, thinner Caza, but I'm sad as I'm going to be between corsets soon.

Wow

OK, so its been a while, but there's a new story on the way! Hope to get it finished this weekend, or early next week... I do hope you all like it :)

Love xoxo
