Response – JSW Prompt 9-3-2018 She had her reasons, reasons she couldn’t explain, not to him, not to anyone. They were better off not knowing. Knowing was the knowledge that placed her in this predicament to begin with. Curiosity. Curiosity about an oddity that like a puzzle, she couldn’t put down. The need to know […]

Community Spirit – Prompts :) Live again
As some of you may be aware, I was going to start a daily prompt. As two delightful (and many other) delightful members of our community have already responded to the need, request, desire for a daily prompt, I won’t (for the time being) unless it becomes necessary. I’m sure there are others I have […]
I (A to Z Challenge)
Isabel stood stock still staring in shock and horror, immobile. Tears slowly filled her eyes, traveling down her cheeks. She stared down at the broken shards of cup and saucer at her feet in devastation – it was irreplaceable, one of a kind! Sliding down the cupboard she sat beside the pieces, dropped her […]
D ( A to Z Challenge)
Gramma was gone. It was a tragedy of immense proportions in Emma’s mind. Her confidant her most treasured companion with whom she’d shared her highest highs and lowest lows always offering listening ear or warm hearted-hug. No matter what she was doing, she’d made time for Emma. Emma’s story writing was born from […]
C (A to Z Challenge)
Tamara was captivating. Her strength determination frivolity combined with astute business sense meant her work was in demand and continually growing. With a clear vision for her company and its future, she’d hired additional staff and moved steadily forward. It was a brand-new niche and she’d fallen in love instantly. The increasing popularity and availability […]
B (April Challenge)
Frazer stood on the sidelines, watching. The Garden Show was well attended and a stroke of genius, drawing hundreds to the opening of their latest Hotel. Their efforts justifiably rewarded by constant words of appreciation, smiles, nods, the glow on enthusiast’s faces. Glancing back and forth, he spotted a lovely young woman roaming alone. She […]
A (April Challenge)
My Z to Z Challenge theme is love and romance in all it’s quirkiness. Requited, unrequited, familial, romantic. Hope you enjoy. He was head over heels in love with her. A sonnet, a poem, a love song, he’d tried them all attempting to romance her. Other than a flicker of a smile or raised […]
Henrietta’s 300 word “Perspective”
I used to hate that word – perspective – it meant how you saw things wasn’t real, wasn’t true, wasn’t valued or validated. It was just your perspective therefore it was only a possibility, plausible, but then not the real true answer. Your perspective meant coloured by your thoughts, beliefs, views and therefore not necessarily […]
Quote 3 of Quote Challenge Day
“Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.”- Albert Einstein (1879-1955) Pretty all encompassing. We spend so much time equating wealth with money as bean counters add and subtract their losses. Piles of money stashed away they couldn’t possibly spend in a lifetime. Other than providing things (necessities […]

3 Day Quote Challenge – Day 2
Your belief creates your reality! I saw this once and can’t, unfortunately, find the picture that went with it. If you believe you can’t make it, you won’t. If you believe you’re not worthy, you never will be. If you believe you can’t make a difference, you can’t. If you believe it’s going […]

Sensitive #AtoZChallenge #amwriting
Zoe was sensitive by nature. She’d grown a hard shell of protection. Advertising wasn’t for the feint of heart. It took guts, stamina, intelligence, wit and knowing the difference and awareness regarding the current climate. The banner across the stage was for her. Extolling excellence. She’d earned it, every step of the way. Dogged pursuit […]
