Deadly, the most venomous snake in the forest. Only when attacked, and only as a last resort. He was only trying to live, to protect his children. His fangs a dangerous weapon. Even the bright colouring of his skin, luring his victims into the undergrowth. Slithering through the undergrowth, his home, he finally rested againstContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2022/04/18/fowc-with-fandango-deadly/”

Hiding in Shadows

Irrelevant, standing in the playground watching other children playing football, or chatting. Her first day, but her last day all at the same time. Her stomach lurched forward, in a bid to stay upright. If she stayed here until the day started she could avoid conflict. Changing schools seemed a good idea at the time,Continue reading “Hiding in Shadows”

Different

Same Same But DifferentMy ‘Same Same But Different’ task is to take the five challenge words and NOT use them in your writing.

Harsh office blocks stand together in a tight huddle against the sunlight. This is my world – 2042 – A world where we move from one road to another without knowing why. I go to work to stop myself from starving, but the tax on fuel cripples me. I rarely use my car these days,Continue reading “A New Beginning”
