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”

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”

Why couldn’t the pony sing in theContinue reading “Punny”

Lavender always makes me think of my aunties, they used to wear that perfume when I was young. My favourite flower is a rose. TheyContinue reading “Memories”
