It’s a good idea to study comparable books and see how they deal with violence before you decide which route to go down.

I’m in Loughborough – I wouldn’t call it quaint or pretty…like any town, there are bits like that, but not in the town centre. I suppose it depends on where most of the action happens…

Not sure where you’re based, Philippa, but happy to show you round if you want to see it!

Seagreen, what a juicy idea. I will try on paper and see where it leads. I haven’t written anything for years.

A super piece of writing. Gave me goose bumps. Well done Seagreen.

Nice prompt… Looking forward to getting my teeth stuck into this one.

Well done Seagreen, fully deserved.
Thanks, Daeds. Yes, I was in SA for the election. What do you mean by “on the nose”?

Well done, Sea! And thanks for setting us off on a monthly comp journey again here in the Den, Daeds.
