The project I want to do next came as a result of one of the monthly comps – the one Daeds set about doorways. I wrote about twelve pages of notes at the time and added to it at odd moments when things occurred to me – obstacles, dialogue, conflict.
One thing I have learned over the past year, is the part backstory can play in giving my…[Read more]

I’m not sure what fascinates me more – the list of items you came up with or the fact you came up with them when you were caught by surprise…🤔

Thank you all for taking the time to post an entry, especially Sandra, who kicked things off (phew!), but later withdrew by reason of unavailability to set the next comp should she win.

Anyway, as most of you know, I’m rubbish at any kind of feedback so I’ll keep this short.

Sandra – strong voice. And some perfect turns of phrase – ‘Like a…[Read more]

Ace! Our very own SloMoWriMo. Looking forward to it 🙂

I’m quite partial to Two Cities and the Void

That’s 2 of us, Daeds. When were you thinking? And how would it work? I’m quite prepared to set up a support group of some kind if that will help.

Not tempted by the NaNoWriMo, but if the Den does a SLoMoWriMo, I’m in!

Congratulations, L. Another fine story 🙂

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.

Should I look forward to seeing an entry? 😉

Thanks, all. And I hope some of you will try your hand at October’s.
