Where would I go

if I could go anywhere?

 Good question. 

I'm limiting the answers to

real places

because most of you are writers

and frankly, as writers

we can go ANYWHERE

 while still sat behind our keyboard.

And have tea with a faun

when we get there.

Look.

It's like this.

I'm English and
I've lived most of my life near castles.

Lindisfarne

Big, beautiful castles.

Bamburgh

Like this.  

Bodiam

They are everywhere.

Norham

Some of them are lived in.

Warwick

Some of them are still lived in 

by the family who built them.

Alnwick

 I love castles.

Bothal

But sometimes

I'd like a different kind of fantasy.

Something splashy and trashy.

Something in high heels and false eyelashes 

and suspect gender.

That's a real kind of magic.

A city set aside for adults to play adult games,

to believe in the very real power of 

glamour

in its original sense.

I want to go to

LAS VEGAS!

Yeah, Baby!

They even have castles!

Hop on over to either 

Lexa's or Julie's blog

and join in the fun.

Prizes too!

I went back and identified the castles,
so you can visit them,
at least on the page.

Most of them are in the north of England.
I've  been lucky enough to live near
all of them, except Warwick Castle.
