Comments

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I respond to anyone who comments on my post. However, when it is emojis I think a like is sufficient enough to end the conversation. When commenting on other author’s posts; It depends on what is written. If I enjoy a poem or short story my feedback is normally brief. If theContinue reading “Comments”

Writing

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I am most creative first thing in the morning. Before I go to my job, I engage in writing for half an hour. I find myself more productive then because there is a limited amount of moments. The more I dedicate to my novel, I keep wanting to change it. When IContinue reading “Writing”

Ravenclaw

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ As my blog name suggests, I could write effortlessly about Harry Potter. I have watched every film at least ten times. I have read every book the same amount of times. My daughter was the same age as the main protagonist when it was first published. I read to her before sheContinue reading “Ravenclaw”

Short Posts

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I prefer short because I cannot focus on the writing when someone creates a longer post. Easily losing concentration when it has too much information. Scanning it, rather than reading properly. That being said, there are some that are interesting. There are some brilliant writers out there. With AI in the mix,Continue reading “Short Posts”

A Joke?

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ Can I take a joke? It depends on who and what it is. If it is my husband, family, or best friends; yes. If it is work colleagues, or acquaintances. It is a firm no. Part of this could be that I could be autistic. I have never received a diagnosis, butContinue reading “A Joke?”

No chat GBT

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ No, I haven’t used chat GBT. I assume it is something to do with artificial intelligence. The most I use is ProWritingAid. A writer in my group suggested it as an excellent program to sort out grammar, repetitions and a lot more. I have put my chapters through it and have foundContinue reading “No chat GBT”

Algorithms

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I value on-line privacy. Although, it is difficult for us to keep that intact. When we buy on Amazon, there are algorithms which bombard you with adverts about a another product. I find it easier to have my pen name. It is the same with Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. We have toContinue reading “Algorithms”

A Tiff

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ When I have a tiff, or an argument with my husband, I normally apologise first. I hate any disagreements. Although, if I think I am right, I tell him. I have been married for thirty-six years. Sometimes I have got it wrong, and others, it is my other half. We both understandContinue reading “A Tiff”

Plans

Written for https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ As this year ends, with only a few weeks left in 2023, I have no actual plans. Not yet anyway. I am waiting for some feedback on my WIP ‘‘Orvieto’’. I received a bursary for an agent to read it. Covered in red marks, I am sure, but I will have invaluableContinue reading “Plans”

Survive

Written in response to https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ My signature song will always be ‘‘I will survive, by Gloria Gaynor’’. Recorded in 1978, I was thirteen. I remember singing (out of tune) with a hairbrush in my hand, singing the lyrics. The words reflected my mood. Not so much about the school I attended because by then IContinue reading “Survive”
