Web
Today, the word of the day from https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/author/embeecee/ is squeamish. ‘It can’t harm you its dead,’ Tom said. Sarah looked at the dead bird on her lawn, and knew he made sense, but even the thought of touching it made her want to be sick. Tom, sat on the sofa, didn’t get up when sheContinue reading “Web”
Writer’s Block
This quote prompt from https://saltedcaramel670.wordpress.com/2022/06/20/blogging-insights-new-format/ got me thinking about when I write. When I am writing for my blog, I allow myself to write, and not really think about what I am writing. Not in the sense of it making sense, but not over worrying that it doesn’t work. Flash fiction is something you canContinue reading “Writer’s Block”

Dad
Today is Father’s day in the UK. I always think about my dad, and don’t need a day to do that. He died when I was seventeen, but he has inspired me throughout my life. We were always close. If I ever had a problem, it would be my dad I would speak to. HeContinue reading “Dad”

Proceed With Caution
Our word prompt from Fandango is proceed. ‘Proceed with caution, that’s what Joe’s mother-in-law should have had on her door. A formidable woman, she could spot a lie like a hawk could spot a mouse. She would dive into your weaknesses, and always got you to talk. Today was going to be no different. SheContinue reading “Proceed With Caution”
