Lovely to see you back Bridget :))

I was thinking about this thread in bed last night lol whilst hunting for a subject...also while i was away I treated myself to a writers magazine, which has a list of competitions attached...I may put some of them on later :)

Yes welcome back Bridget

Morning Bridget. We would all be delighted if you came 'back into the fold' and I look forward to receiving your writings. We have dwindled somewhat, but there is still a core battling away! Welcome back. BC XX

I was wondering if I could come back on here as now I feel ready to start writing again, would that be OK

A big thank you to those who have continued to send me their writings. much appreciated.

Bridget

This thread has been a bit dead for a while, thought I would wake it up!!!

I'm glad the binders are good Maggie :))

Hi all ~~~~

Sent out my latest contibutions and thanks for the replies.

Was worried about sending to Daff, so been on her thread and she can stop them at any time. Didn't want to overload her !

Thanks to Rose...those book binders you sent me the link for have arrived. Expensive I think, but they are so good ! Work perfectly for saving all my poems in, and bought one extra for OH family tree. Giving him it next Tuesday for a wedding anniversary pressie ..lol

Some first lines for you:


It had to be done.

It was never going to be an ordinary day.

Her foot slipped and she started to fall. (I think I have done this one Lol!!)

The clock struck one.

The birds swoop low.

I knew what I'd done as soon as the door closed.

I remember the day.

(Name) threw her bag on the floor and burst into tears.

It wasn't as if anyone got hurt.

In the end it didn't matter.

The old woman turned and smiled.

There was a definite chill in the air

Anyone around?? could someone put a set piece or topics please as I am stuck for ideas .....and I'm having wthdrawal symptons lol

thank you Maggie for your good wishes. Hmm you know I am no good at rhyme. Maybe tomorrow when my head is not befuddled with cava!!

Hope you have had a brilliant day Ann, and expect no less than a minute

by minute description of your day ! In prose or in rhyme...lol

Only joking, honest !

Thanks Mau, and Ann for your encouraging words !

Edited to say ' Happy Birthday Ann' !!!

fingers crossed (I can do that!) and some toes too (bit harder at the moment!) for a happy ending Maggie

Hello Maggie. Fingers firmly crossed for a happy ending:-) BCXX

ello ello..lol

I am still here honest !

Not been around much, just catching up, and enjoyed all your stories and poems, thank you.

My main reason for not being here is I am doing research for a rellie, and watch this space for a happy ending (or not) But, regardless, I will be writing it all out for all of you, in my very bad prose..lol

Doing research for living rellies is hard isn't it? Please keep your fingers crossed for a happy ending :)
