It’s a toss-up between a children’s picture book and the ‘unofficial’ biography of a Hollywood A-lister.

I’m living on me nerves, so I am, wondering where the next comp entry is coming from… I know there’s one out there. I can feel it, see?
And it scares me. -

Thinking out loud here…
Daughter (Children?) of Shadows
Daughter of the Shadowland(s)
The Time Stealer’s …… (Adversary/Daughter/Enemy)

You talk about bonds and use the term ‘enmeshed’ so I’m going for The Untangling.

Felt the pressure building up as I read and the dam burst at this line ‘Within twenty four hours enough people from Mousehole had volunteered to form a new crew…’Not a good look when you’re in the restaurant car park waiting for your sister.
Seriously, there are no other group of people who earn this much of my respect.

Never Judge a Book
No, sir, we don’t hold property any more. Not since 1 October. Yes, you did just miss out. Yes, if it was a gold bar we probably would look after it and if you ever find one of those on a park bench then don’t hesitate to come straight here. But this is a book. Well, look after it but leave us the details and we’ll conta…[Read more]

Left Luggage
You can be the finder, the keeper, or the person in the lost and found looking after the following items:
An old army great coat
A banjo or ukulele
A plastic lunchbox with a 60’s TV theme (contents up to you)
A spellbook (my nod to Halloween)Choose one and weave a compelling story around its loss or discovery.

Ah, Daeds, you’re too generous. I didn’t expect that, and have, in fact, been checking the Den frequently today to find out what the theme for this month’s comp would be 🙂
I’m delighted, of course, given the calibre of the entries, but hope no-one expects that same level of insight when it comes to October’s judging.
Off to think of something to set…

Mean and generous tied at 11 each so the outcome at the moment is generous by default. Anybody yet to vote who feels like being mean?

My experience of Twitter is that the impression one gets of its nature, for example whether there is a particular faction behaving in a particular way, is very much dependent on where you go and who you follow but also what you regard as appropriate or excessive. Personally, I have never noticed that I am not followed back; if anything I am the…[Read more]
