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

Using a tried and trusted formula, I’d like you to start with the opening line of track 11 from Arab Strap’s ‘As days get dark’ and take it wherever you will. Maximum word count 350 please, deadline Friday 30th April.

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.

I’m thinking Janette should be careful what she wished for – I guess her task has just quadrupled!

Rose the Cat
One day when I was seven, my sister Rose turned into a cat. I expected it because Rose had said โYou wonโt catch me here much longer. Not like this.โ Mr Cobden, the old man at the end of the road next to where the people had little walls all over their garden that my mum said were โcommonโ, said to us that we would both live long…[Read more]

Another. Nothing much to worry
About. Examples are (quite literally) everywhere you
Look. Consider the universe. Just

Out of an incomprehensible
Mess, shrugging on the laws of physics, sorting

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)

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 ๐I saw the prompt and thought I would
