Hobbies and Crafts

Have just replied to your post Ann, and hope there's more of your story?

Sorry to see you go Stella, I'll get my brain into gear (she said hopefully)

Mau :-)

I am leaving the group for the time being, have fun everyone with your writing and keep,those imaginations working

Stella :-)

I have sent out an 'offering' this week. Don't know where it came from or where it is going. We shall see!!

I hope so Rose. :-)

Thanks to those who have sent pieces to me, my apologies for not responding but at the moment i am having to share Dan's PC again as mine is offline, so I can only pop in and out while he is at college :-(

Hopefully I will get a working dongle soon :-D

Any idea why Jan? Hope you can fix it soon

Thank you Stella I loved it, more please.

Mau shall look forward to it. I always in a way wish we had bought an old house so that we could find something interesting in the attic.

I have sent out a piece that has nothing to do with the prompts, I have written it just to get me writing again. :-)

ok Ann, i invented a form called the Stellanette a while ago because i love repetition on poems..there are a few of them in my book, so i will send one out to everybody...

:-)

Good afternoon girls :-D and thank you for the prompts Ann.

Well phew I've started writing again...not sure how long it will take me to finish, but, so relieved to get rid of the 'cramp' lol
........it all started when we were in the loft :-0 ........to be continued ;-)

Mau xx

edit: hope your OH's treatment is favourable for him Jan xx

Thanks Ann,

I have ground to a halt with writing, so maybe one of those options will kick start my brain :-S

Just in case anyone is looking for a nudge to get writing again. I have seen the following first line of a short story prompt inWriting Magazine.

"The view from the hotel window was breath taking"

(Where was the hotel, who was in the room, what were they doing there, what was so special about the view?)


Some exercises for the poets among us:

Write a poem that repeats words or phrases, or whole lines effectively

Write a poem in which each line repeats one word from the previous line.

Start each stanza with the same words e.g. I saw or I hear.

Write a chidren's poem or story with the first line:
A bat flew out one starry night
Pirate O'Malley was grouchy and mean.
A witch called Wendy had a cat
High on a hill lives a marvellous goat
On a faraway planet there once lived a (alien name of your choice).

Many thanks everyone for your support


Regards Jan

Best wishes also for Jan's OH.
