Daedalus

I saw that Debi had praised it on Facebook.

🙂 Confess I haven’t checked it out

Looks useful. Hope it’s well set out.

Thank you @Athelstone and @seagreen. Also thanks @Janette for a prompt which enabled me to try out a reason for a murder.

Congratulations, Sandra! 😊 And well done to Ath and Daeds. All brilliant entries!

Thanks for the prompt, Janette, that encouraged me to try something completely different 👍

Smashing story, Sandra. Very well deserved win!

Wow. Thank you Janette, I’d relaxed, confident of having been entertainingly pipped at the post. Will drag myself from editing and see what I can come up with.

Congratulations, Sandra!

Thank you Jane – and Kate and Raine – it’s always good to get positive feedback, and Carol’s was more incisive that I could have managed. (I’m still grinning)

Fantastic review and blog, Sandra. She really understood your book and your writing! Bravo and well-deserved.

UNTITLED (as usual!)
89 words, so a bit on the short side, and I don’t mind if this makes no sense to anyone but me 🙂

I saw the prompt and thought I would
Write a poem, if I could,
I took a vintage text (or two)
And tried to fashion something new,
