KSP Exercise – POV
I may have been ignoring my blog but I’ve still been facilitating at KSP Writers’ Centre. Admittedly mostly Tabby and Alex but I believe technically there are considered people. And they do pay, actually I pay. That’s right I pay to boss about my own kids. Actually thinking about it, they listen to me; moneyContinue reading “KSP Exercise – POV”
50 Word Fight
A mean person; not mentioning any names Lisa, told me to write some 50 word stories for a competition and then forgot to send me the link. So it is up to you to judge me. Stop judging me ! Only joking, judge away! Fight! Ryan’s head hit tiles. Sam, normally quiet, could devastate withContinue reading “50 Word Fight”
I Hate Hoomans! part 5.

Monkey Hear Monkey Write
KSP Writer’s Circle didn’t have a writing exercise this morning but people were talking about a 49 word challenge. At the coffee break I let Mum make my cup of tea; it gives the old dear something useful to do. She paid me back by listening to things I randomly said last week and ruinedContinue reading “Monkey Hear Monkey Write”
