Squidge started the topic Tilda of Merjan Book Launch in the forum Podium 6 years, 9 months ago
Folks did ask when I was going to do a launch – details here: https://squidgesscribbles.blogspot.com/2019/09/book-launch-tilda-of-merjan.html
It’s a full daytime event in half term, although half term seems to run over two weeks and this is the first of the two.
But I have been wondering whether any Denizens would be up for an evening…[Read more]

Sandra, they are fun, aren’t they? Valspar (Other paint companies also available!) are the absolute best ones – much more imaginative than others I could mention!

September comp’s up – realise it might be a bit quiet this month because of York, but looking forward to reading those who decide to give it a go.

I believe certain peeps have heard about comp placings for York this weekend…
Anyone else we don’t know about yet?!
Good luck to everyone who has been, commiserations to those who haven’t, and have a bloody good time the rest of you. x

Right, many of you know I use paint samples as one of my writing prompts in creative writing sessions; now you get to have a go.
The samples are all beige/brown in colour. Your challenge is to pick one of the following names given to the shades of brown and give me a max of 400 words, using the name as a title. Your choices are;

Damn don’t you just hate when reality gets in the way of a good turn of phrase! I do love the sound of that last line.
I wonder if you could play with the idea of someone repeatedly redialling so that the ringing sound becomes continuous even if each call begins and ends. Perhaps you could tweak the last line slightly to read something like…[Read more]

Mantra.
I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul.
Such is the mantra, spoken quietly in hope during clandestine gatherings, or whispered in the darkest moments outside of them, when dreams of life lived to the full fall beyond my control and are squashed like bugs in the mud.
For certain, this mantra is against the teachings of…[Read more]

@jillybean – read your books pretty much in two days. Really enjoyed them. Love Gregory – big, brash, but loyal to a fault.
Couldn’t find them on Goodreads to leave a review though… Have you posted them there yet?

They are both on Goodreads but are easier to find if you search for them as Revolt the king’s knight etc
(tried to leave you a link but dialogue box didn’t like it.)Really appreciate you taking the time to leave a review π

I’ll take another look…

Have we ever had an entry in the form of a song before? Formatting may be a challenge, so bear with me.
On a restroom wall in Baltimore,
Above a broken sink,
Someone scratched this message,
βItβs later than you thinkβI took this simple line to heart,
I saw that it was true,
And built myself a sturdy boat,
Then sailed the ocean blue.Time goes…[Read more]
