Andrew Wille's DIY MA course 6 years, 11 months agoFeel like I’ve got here when everyone else is leaving…
It’s been a funny couple of days, hasn’t it? What with Ath’s comp and these ‘I remembers’ some unexpected emotions have floated to the surface. -

Andrew Wille's DIY MA course 6 years, 11 months agoThis served as a reminder of the things we go through as children. It’s quite harrowing, in a way, although thank goodness for Glenn’s mum!

I remember my dad’s blue Ford Zephyr. I could pick the lock with my fingernail
I remember woollen blankets with coloured stripes and black and white striped pillows
I remember RAF Tengah and T15, the ‘robot’ bus that…[Read more] -

Andrew Wille's DIY MA course 6 years, 12 months agoGorgeousness is clearly in the eye of the beholder 🙂 I’m not fussy for the Kipling or Gloss examples but rate the other two.

Untitled (314 words)
We’d been to Tesco’s. A late night shopping trip. I bought a ready meal and a soft, fluffy scarf in shades of blue and grey. In the car home we talked about a chip shop tea and the possibility of potato fritters.
‘Your grandad used to make potato fritters,’ I said. ‘As a special treat. Mixed up the batter and did them in t…[Read more] -

I don’t know the answer, Squidge, but I had the same thing yesterday.

Glad it’s not just me – thought I must be doing something wrong!

Andrew Wille's DIY MA course 7 years agoOh, the Hadron Collider! Now there’s something else I know nothing about!
For me, the fun is in the not knowing and the annoyance is trying to list the things that wouldn’t automatically come to mind because I know nothing about them anyway. If that makes sense? -

Good job, Ath 🙂
And thanks, Squidge. I’ll never look at a paint colour quite the same way again! -

Andrew Wille’s DIY MA course 7 years agoI am both looking forward to this (the thought of it excites me) and dreading it (worried that I’ll fall behind) but in the face of WB’s wonderfully thought out plan, I’m sharpening the pencils and saying ‘Bring it on!’

Me too!

Well, the Den has private groups so I’m sure it’s possible. We’re hardly over-using the site’s facilities at the moment.
-
Also, it looks good doesn’t it. What a star Andrew is. Andrew, missed you at York this year!
-
That’s @andrew 🙂
-
Thanks! And thanks for sharing this – do put it into circulation with people who might be interested. And too there are plenty of ways to mix up and adapt what’s there.
And yes – I think the Den could be a great place to set up a critique space. What I’d like is to be able to recommend more places where writers can connect with like-minded…[Read more]

Sorry @andrew, I forgot to tag you in. THanks for pointing people in our direction & hopefully we are/can be one of those safe critique spaces for writers. I think your syllabus + a supportive online group will make a brilliant combination. 🙂

A blog will be nice. I’ve missed catching up.
-
Looking forward to the blog. Missed the real thing. (Would never like to go to another of H Duncan’s workshops, if that’s who you mean, though I know some think they’re great.)
Specially sorry to miss John’s reading, which I can quite believe was the best, and seeing ‘Cloudies’/Denizens. Maybe next year. There’s been lots of ‘family stuff’ this…[Read more]

DREAM WEAVER (267 WORDS INCLUDING TITLE)
In my dreams I’m strong and fearless. My sword is sharp and silver, but I won’t stab you if I don’t have to: I’ll give you the chance to surrender and walk away.
But only one chance, mind.
In my dreams, there are green trees that smell of apples and yellow roses that fill the garden with sunshine. Vampire…[Read more] -
