Can anyone give me a 'subject' to write on, I'm a bit woolly at the moment lol.

How about, taking the Christmas decs down.... feelings.
Old year out New year in....
When I was a child I had a......

Anyway I see you didn't need suggestions as you have forged ahead. Well done.

Hya gang! hope you're all well......disappointing to see we have no new members joining us :O(

I have just sent out my latest contribution. Now need something to inspire me to write a story or poem?

Hi Mau, ladies :)

A few ideas from the internet and a writing magazine

- Write using on of the following phrases as your first line

"After the door shuts and the footsteps die..."

"Collapsing under a canopy of green..."

Write a poem that describes a walk through a house from the perspective of a child.

Use the following sentences to begin: "It's not the street I usually go down. But for some reason, that day I turned down a different road."

Autobiography. If you had 15 minutes to tell someone who you are, what would you tell them?

Write about a place you know well, the real place not the 'tourist version', leave in the gritty bits.

A poem about someone in history, how they might have felt ...for example we all know Churchill's speeches "we will fight them on the beaches..." etc, did he have any doubts before D Day, did he ever consider not winning? Did he sometimes think, I should have left this to someone else to do?

Wow, some good ideas there Rose.

I wonder if anyone remembers that the first line of New Beginnings came from just such an exercise. (So I mustn't look at these ot I might get distracted, but I shall make a note.)

Woohoo! we have a new member!

I will direct her to this thread and hopefully she will say hello, but if she wants to stay anonymous for now till she finds her feet that is fine too :)

I will get back to you on contact details :)

good news Rose.

Yes good news and thanks for the good ideas Rose :O)

...now where to start soo many...no excuses ;o

Just sent out chapter 28.

what happened about the new member Rose?

And what about the ones who joined us a while back? Not heard any more from them since.

Afternoon fellow scribblers:-) Apologies as not been on computer much since my pal arrived (she never uses hers so doesn't know how important it is to turn it on every morning! lol). She will leave tomorrow and I look forward to reading contributions which have been emailed to me-) BC XX

Well!!!! I did wonder where you were BC But thought I just may have missed you. So you have been busy nattering!

Whose silly idea ( !) was it to add that subject ""Collapsing under a canopy of green..."

I was up to all hours trying to do something with it lol

Thank you Ann for your chapter, and will read asap :)

Rose every time I see that I don't see a canopy of green leaves etc, I see a tent!!!!

I see green jelly:-)) lol BC XX

lol , I'm just unimaginative :)

Our new member has asked to remain anonymous on here for now, so I will be sending out her name when i send out what I write this week ( nothing to do with a green canopy after last nights efforts ! lol) and will forward work to her and vice versa.
