Crossing was provided as a prompt last April (2023). I wasn’t inspired by the chicken so much as the word prompt… which reminded me of the short story X Marks the Spot, that in turn gave me book 8 of
Flashback Fiction #writephoto | Lambent
Lambent is the title Sue Vincent gave her #writephoto prompt this week in 2020. It refers to the quality of light in the stunning photo she’s chosen. I’m doing some Flashback fiction at present, and this one brought back many
Desk | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Desk was provided as a prompt last March (2023), so I thought I’d slip it in here. It’s from the writephoto meme by KL Caley at New2Writing.com, but unfortunately KL is on hiatus. I have recently discovered that my neck
Flashback Fiction #writephoto | Still waters
Still was this week’s #writephoto prompt from Sue Vincent in 2020. It was my first writephoto; I planned to do one a month, and ended up doing them weekly till my hands went just over a year ago (is it
Arrowslit | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Arrowslit is a writephoto prompt from January 23. We haven’t heard from KL Caley for a while, and I hope all is well with her and her family. Sending love, KL. I’m back in the Realms, picking up on the
Flashback Fiction: Twisted Love
Twisted Love was the Chuck Wendig prompt for Valentine’s day in 2014. I came up with this story in response, about 1300 words. It’s firmly set in the late stages of the Princelings of the East stories, possibly even during
Grotto | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Grotto – a great #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com. It took me less than five minutes to get the spark for the first line of this one, and I enjoyed writing it. I hope nobody is offended, though.
Treehouse | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Treehouse, the prompt from KL Caley for #writephoto, brought me inspiration today, I’m very pleased to say. And my hands felt well enough to type, even after a busy craft fair at Salisbury on Saturday. The steroid injection in my
Stairs | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Stairs is this week’s prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com, and I actually got some inspiration. I trimmed it to around 1300 words, so I hope you don’t mind me making up a little for my #writephoto absence. Stairs The
Geometric in Florence | #writephoto flash fiction
A geometric hexagonal building in Florence. That was my interpretation of this week’s writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com. And that reminded me of Venice, where a couple went searching for something on steps. This is another woman I’d
Galleon | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Galleon was crying out to be part two of last week’s Fresco story. Well, you seemed to want a part two, anyway. Fortunately the #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2writing.com fell right into my lap, and we pick up
Fresco | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Fresco – well it definitely looks like one, although I am tempted to call it Al, and do something a little more off the wall 🙂 It’s today’s #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com, anyway. I hope you enjoy
Fort | #writephoto Flash Fiction
‘Fort’ is the writephoto prompt from KL Caley from New2Writing.com this week. It popped up just as I was considering the James Lovelock book the Vanishing Face of Gaia, which prompted a very unwelcome idea indeed. I’ll be reviewing that
Footprints in the Sand | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Before I get to Footprints, which is the #writephoto prompt from KL Caley at New2Writing.com for the week, I must apologise to anyone who came to Chichester on Saturday hoping to meet me. I had to pull out of the
Chess | #writephoto Flash Fiction
Chess pieces, life size – what a wonderful spot from KL Caley at New2Writing.com for today’s #writephoto prompt. I’m extremely grateful to Joy Weese Moll for her comment on last week’s Chandelier/A2ZTheme Reveal, as it gave me the idea for
