Hi Teresa..............don't worry,you're doing a grand job as our new leader.
Does Mrs. Grumpy know we're all still here or has she forsaken us :O(

...............a shot rang out across the thread>>>>>arrghhh.....

Time to 'fess up.... I get them from a site called 'Wake up writing'. there are loads of exercises to get your brain going there...

I just copy and past them on here...it's not my genius really...honest.

Sorry.

*hangs head in shame*

I just wanted to do something in the *grits teeth* absence of our group founder! *smiles sweetly*

Poor brain is soooo tired, even Jack Jones isn't helping!

Afternoon Ladies!!!

I'm still busy with other projects, so not had much time for the group work, but here's this week's story seeds. Purely optional, do them if you want, don't worry if you don't. It's just a bit of fun.

Use any of the following as the start of a piece of fiction or non-fiction:

1.A shot rang out across the ………
2.It had always been this way, and as far as Mary could see, there wasn’t any chance of ………
3.The exploitation of ………

Bridget, we send to all.

I have had parts one and two only of yours. Hope this helps.


Incidentally did you find parts one to five of mine, I know you weren't sure.

Help Please. It is a while since I was on this thread and am not sure if I have sent my most recent writing or not!!!!
Nor can I recall if we send our pieces to every one or what....???

Thanks
Bridget
Oh yes the piece I want to send is numbered 4 on my comp but I can only recall sending two.......if anyone has kept what I have sent then I will know where I am

Thanks

Will be sending out chapter 7 later.

I am yet one more who needs to say sorry .I am still reading everything but just not doing the commenting!.Am still enjoying reading everyones pieces.
I probably read a couple of books a week.Most are Crime/Murder/Thriller type.
Just finished one this morning (at 4am) I woke in the night and couldn't get back to sleep).By Karen Rose.Title Shh Don't Tell.It was brilliant.

Me neither, I don't even read them much, only occasionally when on holiday and they are the only books available.

Yes they do have to be researched throroughly, not just the police procedures side, and forensics side, but also the psyche of the criminal I would have thought.

I never fancied writing crime stories, I don't think I've got 'that kind of mind' LOL

I always think it is much more difficult to write about crime because you have to know about the legal side as well usually.
