https://fivedotoh.com/2021/08/18/fowc-with-fandango-awry/ https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/ Awry and Figure It could have been dehydration, but Bethany could have sworn it said thank you before swimming away from the boat. To figure out what to do next, without water, or food to keep her alive, swoops around her head like an out of control fledgling learning to fly. Her dream,Continue reading “Fandango and Word of the Day Prompts”
Wednesday Waters – Snippet from It Won’t Happen Again
June 2004 Julie stood in the shadows. ‘You coming?’ Laura leant out of the window. ‘Don’t be so loud, Father is out for the count, but you might wake the neighbours.’ A packet of menthol cigarettes grabbed from her draw, she put her pillows down the middle of the bed, stepped back, and hoped inContinue reading “Wednesday Waters – Snippet from It Won’t Happen Again”
Daily Word Prompt – Hone
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2021/08/18/your-daily-word-prompt-hone-ydwordprompt-august-18-2021/ For the first few days I drift out to sea with nothing more than berries and a canteen of water to tide me over.

Eggs Scrambled, poached, fried – Egg’s diversity cannot be denied. On toast, or with chips – taste great upon my lips. Cakes, biscuits, quiche – Egg’s uses never cease, An omelette, with lots of milk, taste as soft as expensive silk.

The first question from Fandango is what worries you about the future. I’m not sure, but I think I worry about other people more than I worry about myself. COVID has knocked the stuffing out of me. You go out without a mask, and it feels weird not to put one on. I’m fully vaccinated,Continue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2021/08/11/fandangos-provocative-question-130/”
Tuesday Trust – Snippet from It Won’t Happen Again
As they hugged, Martha looked out of the front room window. Curtains fully open, the sun had nearly reached its peak. She arrived home at exactly twelve o’clock. Martha carefully placed her presents alongside her diary, teddy, and some homemade cards, which were made by Laura when she was just six, inside her underwear drawer.Continue reading “Tuesday Trust – Snippet from It Won’t Happen Again”

Had they always been there? I wasn’t sure. I stopped at the edge, stared back at the way I had travelled. Blackness descended early tonight. In its effort to portend, predict, and show my future.

Fandango and Word of the day – Gusto and Conduit
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/daily-prompt-links-for-august-2021/ The sea was a conduit of knowledge – Bethany’s father used to say. Not that she remembered much about him. At the age of two, her mother dragged her back to land. A pirates life was not for a small child. Especially since she learnt to swear in several different languages. As she gazedContinue reading “Fandango and Word of the day – Gusto and Conduit”
Monday Milestone – A Snippet from It Won’t Happen Again
‘Don’t worry.’ ‘I can’t stay all day,’ Martha insisted. ‘Just the morning and then I’ll have to go home.’ ‘Forget Thomas, for the next few hours at least.’ An explosion of festivity, Theresa’s front room shone.
