I am not so keen on the set pieces but sometimes they can be helpful and spur you on.. This week has been non productive for me I am afraid! Have concentrated on doing more drafts of what I have done. XX

Oh dear I have to apologise, I thought I had given lots of room for thought. Why not just produce anything, seeds are not mandatory.

Ann,oh no need to apologise, it is just me, have had a problem each week. Sorry didn't mean to offend you. I know we don't have to do it. Eeek, feel awful now. There is loads of room for thought, as I said, I have used part of it as you will see.

Morning Ladies

I'm glad I'm not the only one to have been non productive this week. I keepgetting started on things, then write myself into a corner I can't get out of.

If I was doing this on paper, my waste bin would be overflowing!

Must be the weather.

*Breezes in*

Ann do please send it out. I look forward to reading it.

OK this week I will endeavour to catch up on some of the last couple of weeks work on here.

But for now, for those of you who want to use them, here's this week's story seeds.

Take any of the following 3 story seeds and use them to start a piece of fiction or non-fiction.


1. The recruiter’s face was inches from hers when she ……

2. March. That was the month when ……

3. Surveying the damage, Ben wished that he’d listened more to his ……


I can imagine the poets among us having a good go at number 2, especially after the lovely spring-like day we had today...
