Anyone want some first lines as a creative 'jog'?

"Don't look back"

"Life is funny that way"

"February was very cold, March was much warmer but very windy"

"****** was the colour"

"Alfie loved to fish in the...."

"For once the bus was early but"

"The lights were red......."

Yes Mau. I think I will send out 31 and 32 (again) this week so it slots back into place.

You know it wasn't, it was chapter 32, although the heading said 31, I sent you chapter 32 and you must have missed 31. Probably there is no point me sending 31? Or shall I?

You seem to have found the rythym Rose and write the sort of poetry I enjoy. I also enjoy Maggie's but can never hope to replicate it. Lol!!!!

Thankyou Ann , yes I have received and will read asap .I'm behind with everything today somehow ( lol probably because I keep stopping what I'm supposed to be doing to watch tv ).

Thanks also ladies for comments on my poem :) I was thinking it is rather strange that I seem to be writing poetry more these days, as it has always been prose I found easier? it seems to have switched lol though I have always loved reading poetry.

Jean, if you get a lot all at once, don't panic, read in your own time, normally it is only about one piece a week each, sometimes two.

Jeniwren, Jean, With my current piece we are on chapter 30. It would take too long to copy and send out each of those chapters so when I send the next chapter out to everyone I will send you something else I have done in the past year. Would that be OK?

Rose I think TW said about 90/100000 these days but 80000 is sometimes acceptable.
