Dear Friends (some of whom apparently consider me a sociopath, but in a pleasant sort of way), I always get great satisfaction out of reading the comments on my posts, but I must say that the responses on yesterday’s bit of scribbling exceeded my already-high expectations. Something aligned […]
There are three things about Casey that I immediately noticed: She’s not afraid to let her mind wander into cryptic corners, poking about with a stick, and then sharing the poking with you. Her pieces are often densely-layered, the kind where you know you didn’t get it all […]
As we settle into the new year, I thought it might be festive to resurrect a series which has been unforgivably neglected for a while, one wherein the spotlight is wrenched from yours truly and shone glowingly in the direction of a fellow blogger who fascinates me. […]
And so it was, four score and seven years ago (okay, maybe it was just ten days ago; I get confused), that I proffered up another picturesque writing-prompt. During the rousing commentary interplay that ensued, the deliciously-provocative Fiery composed a lovely poetic piece that encapsulated both the prompt […]
It’s always refreshing when I read a new post from a blogger with a twisted mind (and I say that in a loving and supportive way, as my mind is exceedingly warped), and Marietta never fails to deliver. She has had me giggling for years, and a spotlight […]
Note: One, this is a re-post, as I didn’t have time to compose anything fresh whilst I work my way through two weeks of unanswered comments on my blog. (Not complaining, as I’m having a swell time.) Two, this post was a follow-up post to the then-previous post, […]
In this latest response to the Bonnywood Manor story prompts, multi-talented Obbverse shares a lyrical but cautionary tale about doing things with candles that perhaps one shouldn’t do. (We’ve all been there, right?) Enjoy. Last Night. Hugo approached the final room slowly, His heartbeat flickering […]
In a stunning surge of creative output, the voluminously-talented Melanie has crafted a third tale based on the Bonnywood Manor story prompts. In this installment, she recounts yet another oratory from the crusty but beloved Granny Mae, mayor of Gravy Bucket, Oklahoma. Enjoy. The Ponderin’ about the […]
With this edition of the Sunday in the Park story-prompt entries, the charming Genevieve offers up a witty take on a certain time-honoured institution. Cultures may vary across the globe, but there are some things which hold constant. Enjoy. Sunday in the Park: Voting A lone […]
The illustrious and stunningly-prolific Melanie has once again dipped her feathered implement in the inkwell, so to speak, and composed a tantalizing tale for us to peruse. (Said dipping was inspired by an array of story-prompts found here. Melanie chose Option 5 for this foray.) Herewith, a refreshing […]
