I wanted to take a moment and explain why I haven’t been visiting as many of you as I used to. It’s not that I’ve lost interest, I haven’t. In fact, I miss you very much. Last year I took a couple of tumbles, ok, falls. Unfortunately, they opened the door to injuries that were […]
Bashful
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/25/your-daily-word-prompt-bashful-june-25-2019/ Oh so sweet and bashful was she Peeking from under a shade tree Eyes eloquently checking us out Safely secure in her little hideout Slices of apple gently offered by hand First sniffed smelled and then scanned Those gentle beautiful eyes gave thanks As she turned and left our little camp We have some […]
Control
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/24/your-daily-word-prompt-control-june-24-2019/ Suzette reminded herself once again, “control is an illusion”. Having said that she was still frustrated at the length of time it was taking to find answers to questions either ignored or passed over. As a detective on the force for twelve years, she knew the ropes, the rules, the scenarios, the hoops she’d […]
Indecision
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/23/your-daily-word-prompt-indecision-june-23-2019/ James prided himself on providing quick resolutions, no hesitation, no indecision. So he was confounded upon finding himself in a situation he wasn’t sure how to deal with. Indecision was tying his hands. He wandered around his office before heading across the room toward the windows where he always found solace peace and resolution. […]
New Favourites to listen to :)
I LOVE listening to new talent, people who sing in their own style and really belt out a beautiful rendition of a well known song. Kudos to all!
Music touches the soul.
I found a new program from England called Altogether Now. Instead of having four judges, the singers have 100. Some of these people are pure artists and they can tell a story through their voice such as none other. Hope you enjoy as much as I did.
Thank you :)
I want to say a heartfelt thank you to one and all who followed this story. It was off the top of my head and is the premise for a book. Obviously it requires work, lol, probably lots of it. It was an interesting challenge that I gave myself, taking the daily prompt provided by […]
Insincere
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/16/your-daily-word-prompt-insincere-june-16-2019/ June was flummoxed. Darren Franks had been given the opportunity of a lifetime, to be with the best, learn from the best, walk shoulder to shoulder with the best and if he’d chosen to prove himself, he could have flown, soared, Jackson would have guaranteed it. Instead, he’d squandered a great opportunity, chossing to […]
Trust
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/11/your-daily-word-prompt-trust-june-11-2019/ June listened intently to Jackson’s explanation. Apparently, he’d been a long time friend that his father had given a job to. It wasn’t enough for Darren who felt he was owed more. Anyone’s guess as to what or why he felt wronged. He showed up, did his job, worked well but basically hadn’t added […]
Glamour
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/08/your-daily-word-prompt-glamour-june-8-2019/ To her way of thinking, there was no glamour in this situation. It was tense it was harsh it was unforgiving. She had complete faith that Nigel could resolve the situation and save Jackson. June held her breath awaiting the outcome. She wasn’t alone. She felt the tension rolling off of Roland. They turned […]
Stolid
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/07/your-daily-word-prompt-stolid-june-7-2019/ Nigel was a stolid thinker. It was essential, it was how he worked. There were several strategies open to him and his men. Dozens of questions and scenarios raced through his mind. Which would work best in this case was the question. Divide and conquer? The 2nd perp didn’t appear as committed as the […]

Instigate
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/05/your-daily-word-prompt-instigate-june-5-2019/ Nigel had contacted the local authorities updating them on the current situation and they had undercover men stationed at every entrance should the suspects managed to escape. As soon as they could identify the culprits involved, a full-on investigation would ensure. Nigel had to admitted he was a cop at heart and his blood […]
Dispel
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/04/your-daily-word-prompt-dispel-june-4-2019/ As they moved carefully forward, it was difficult to dispel the angst that assailed her. Would they find the men safe and sound? June wondered about Nigel’s previous comments regarding the men and whether they would stay or run and how invested they were in keeping Roland and Jackson prisoner and whether they’d fight […]
Frisson
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/02/your-daily-word-prompt-frission-june-2-2019/ A frisson of excitement akin to what a thrill seeker might feel hit June. It disturbed her as much as anything could have. This was her brother and Jackson, and these were real honest to god salt of the earth men trying to save their lives and yet that frisson flew across her veins, […]
Difficult
June found it difficult to sit and await the outcome of what had just happened. Even though she didn’t know Brad or the other members of Nigel’s crew, the thought of any one of them coming to harm was disturbing. She was shallow breathing and didn’t realize it until Nigel moved and she sucked in […]
Difficult
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/06/01/your-daily-word-prompt-difficult-june-1-2019/ June found it difficult to sit and await the outcome of what had just happened. Even though she didn’t know Brad or the other members of Nigel’s crew, the thought of any one of them coming to harm was disturbing.

Silence
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/05/28/your-daily-word-prompt-silence-may-28-2019/ The surrounding silence had her heart pounding and her hearing was on high alert, in fact all of June’s senses were on high alert! She wondered if this was what it felt like for Nigel every time he went into an unknown situation. Since this was an unusual situation, perhaps not, but then again, […]

Nostalgic
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/05/26/your-daily-word-prompt-nostalgic-may-26-2019/ “We’ll take it slow here, it’s a good place for an ambush if they heard us coming,” Nigel informed her. Nothing like a little reality to make you feel nostalgic, June thought. Nostalgic for the uncomplicated times, moments shared no matter the reason. She prayed they’d have many more opportunities to enjoy in the […]
Wilderness
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/05/25/your-daily-word-prompt-wilderness-may-25-2019/ It was a wilderness; June couldn’t think of a better way of describing the scene for it was like stepping into a different time zone warping from reality into something else. She didn’t mind the dark the damp or picking her way through the debris. What constituted a wilderness was the vastness of “nothingness” […]
Surround
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/05/24/your-daily-word-prompt-surround-may-24-2019/ The more ground they covered, the more emotion threatened to overwhelm June. She was filled in turn with concern excitement anticipation worry, all flying through her until she stopped to catch her breath. Nigel noticed but said nothing. He wasn’t surprised. She’d been holding her emotions in bottling them up and they were […]
Vague
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/05/23/your-daily-word-prompt-vague-may-23-2019/ What June found most interesting was people’s responses to her artwork. There was nothing vague about their responses, they were either all in, or were completely cold. They had to have it, or they walked away which in most cases amused her since her art covered a huge range of possibilities. She couldn’t help […]
Zenith
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/05/22/your-daily-word-prompt-zenith-may-22-2019/ June had done some digging on Nigel’s company and found he was one of the best in the business, at the zenith of his profession even though he’d only been in business a few years comparatively. June decided it was partly due to his experience as a cop, his heightened awareness of people’s nature […]
