Gothic fiction



This is St. Brides castle in Pembrokeshire where I am going to set my Gothic story set in the 1990's. It looks delightful in this sunny setting and in a delightful situation (which it is) but I am setting it in a dark late Spring time with foul weather to make it a lot more creepy!

My recent short trip to the area has provided me with all the atmosphere and buildings that I require to commence this writing term. while I shall endeavour to make this lovely place into classic Gothic, it is well worth a visit to the area if any one is planning a short trip. The castle (circa 1874) has now been converted to holiday flats.
