Reena’s Xploration Challenge #243 is a sentence starter this week and I am choosing situation two. The doorbell rings and your character answers it – finding nothing but an envelope with nothing on it. They open it and follow the instructions. Sarah heard the door sill clank, and peered out of the window. It was dark,Continue reading “Rings”

Take-Away?

https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/author/pensitivity101/this week is:would you be bothered about having a Chinese/Indian/Chippie/Pizza or similar on my doorstep or would you enjoy the convenience of having a takeaway outlet within walking distance. If I had a take-away on my doorstep, I would struggle with dieting more than I do. On days like this, when my husband can’t beContinue reading “Take-Away?”

Rain Dance

https://lindaghill.com/author/lindaghill/ is the author of the word prompt one-liner-Wednesday. The word for today is Dance. In the UK this summer, we haven’t had much rain. It is the longest dry spell we’ve had for a few years, but our plants are suffering. A dance in the rain, and flowers start to bloom.

World Sharing

Thanks https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/author/pensitivity101/ for taking over Share your World from Melanie When you’re on holiday, do you prefer self catering or a hotel/B&B? I would prefer a hotel, but they can be expensive, so we normally go self catering. Most holiday camps are self catering anyway, and there is always a great fish and chip shop,Continue reading “World Sharing”

Freedom

Remembering, as a child, when her shadow was a friend she could count on. They jumped across the black and white, holding on to her mum’s hand. Watching the different coloured cars race along the road, but she didn’t know where. Now, walking across,Continue reading “Freedom”

It was a risk, some might say precarious, but it was a risk she was willing to take. The job offer, unexpected as it was, made her curious. Did she really want to follow her dream of becoming a writer? Her friend saw the potential, but she hadn’t really considered changing her career path soContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2022/08/09/fowc-with-fandango-precarious/”

Brothers

Brother, your legs weren’t long enough to reach the pedals. You said, if we closed our eyes; we could be anywhere. Just hold on tight. You asked me where . . . I remembered our country home. Fields of glowing corn, ready for our father loving hands. The whispering wind brushed my face. We wentContinue reading “Brothers”

First Sentence

Writing is easy? You just start with a sentence and an award winning novel is created out of nothing. Well, that’s what people think anyway. If you have a good knowledge of grammar, anyone can write a best seller. If only life were that easy – we all think our ideas are unique. But mostContinue reading “First Sentence”

Ebb and flow

Whim is the word Fandango has given us today. On a whim, Sarah grabbed her dark glasses, and crept down the steps to the beach. She was tired, and her eyes were hurting more than normal. Sitting down she squashed her bare feet into the sand. Deep, smooth, and rough the waves rolled over herContinue reading “Ebb and flow”
