I did my random word generating over a week ago now, and believe it or not I can’t remember the words I was given that are written in my notebook. Yesterday afternoon I looked at what word I’d been given for C and I slumped lol. A and B were inspiring, C wasnt. So yesterday evening I Googled the word….and there it was, staring me in the face…inspiration lol…let’s hope I don’t get done for treason 😉

The “Nearly” A-Z Poem


Trying to prepare myself for the A-Z Challenge which begins tomorrow *gulp* i dug this out of one of my notebooks…

Prompted by LouAnn at On The Homefront And Beyond (many months ago!) I decided to do an A-Z poem on how I see myself. Ok, it was a bit ambitious, I couldn’t come up with any words that I could describe myself with that started with X or Z  so i used those in the title.  Fun challenge LouAnn 🙂

Season of Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness


Sincere apologies that I haven’t responded to your lovely comments this week. I gave up smoking on Monday so I’ve been avoiding the iPad (iPad = cup of tea and a cigarette) and just trying to occupy myself by changing my routine. So I’ve been keeping myself busy with writing, reading and magazine flicking. Normal business will resume shortly, I promise.

The title of this blog post is the first line from John Keats To Autumn poem, and will probably give you a hint to my response to the 7th prompt in the 30 Day Writing Challenge

What is your favourite season? Use vivid details and even include memories you have of that season.
