Maggie

Well it could be warm, could be wet. Andalucia Spain.

No problem Ann :)

Have a good holiday, hope it is somewhere warm and dry..lol

Maggie

I hope nobody minds but I have sent out this weeks project (10 words) and a small poem for Sundays offering. I go away on Friday for 8 days, will be around tomorrow but the fewer things to think about while packing the better. Back Saturday 3rd

Hi Mau...i'm new here :)

Really sorry to hear you've been ill, hope you soon make a complete recovery

Lynda xxxxxx

As far as I know she has been OK, I believe once you've had it you are more likely to get it again. OH once had a mild dose but without the sickness, he was alright upright but not laying down, his was probably vertigo. Hope you stay well now Mau.

Hi Ann and Maggie nice to see you both.

Yes it was nasty Ann and very scary,had to crawl on hands and knees to loo ,everything was moving and couldn't keep food or drink down (*wonder if I lost any weight)...seriously though I wouldn't wish it on anyone. It's good to be able to walk straight without looking like a drunk lol......Dr. gave me strong tabs. I felt dopey... ahem yes more than usual ;o)
Hope your Dil has kept well since Ann

Good to see you back here Mau, labrynthitis is nasty my DiL had it last year and she took ages to shake it, the Dr gave her travel sickness tablets.

Hello Mau, hope you are feeling better? So sorry you have been so ill

join us when you are ready.

Hope you found it interesting Daff :))

Maggie

Lol Maggie.... that is what I have been doing before I e-mail you back.... I wanted to know more about it!

Love

Daff xxx

Good evening fellow writers,it's nice to be back,although still a bit wobbley :O) xx

Don't know if i'll be able to write set-piece this week but I do have a 'comical' poem,(written before my sickness).
I also have another poem,not quite finished yet,that came to me as I sat upright all night with bucket on my knees lol....while wating for the dawn to break.....

I have read some of your stories,thank you,and will send comments out soon.

Maggie is so right Japanese forms of poetry are very artful , short but rewarding...

Hi all,

just thought I would add a line about Haiku/Senryu poetry. I have had

some feedback today on the Haiku poem I sent out. For those of you

unfamiliar with it, there are lots of websites that cover the art of Japanese

poetry. Just google the name and there are lots of examples

I am but a novice, but enjoy the challenge !

Maggie

i like poetry it comes naturally ,where prose and short stories i find difficult to do

so i stay with what i do best...lol

I am the opposite Lynda, I tend to go for people stories with romance and nostalgia but I also like to have descriptive parts (gardens etc) I rarely read crime so inclination is not to write it. My stories are not very commercial though, too 'nice'.

If you're going to write a piece of work, and its not a set piece just something you feel you want to do. What genre do you find yourself writing...is it a romantic love story, crime, horror etc,?

My natural inclination is to write crime/thrillers. My husband often says to me, can't you write anything 'nice', well to me this is nice - it's just the way my head works when writing...lol!

Haven't been on line all weekend, so had a lot of catching up to do.

Thanks for all your work, hope I have replied to everyone.

Thanks too for the 'seeds' Teresa'. Gosh, brain in gear now..lol

Maggie

Ooh TW stay-a-bed!

Morning all.

I overslept, only been up 30mins lol. Oh, the shame on a sunny morning like this.

I'd better get off here and do something!

Lynda, I'll send my comments later, I haven't read it all yet :-)
