Gosh what a wonderful weekend and another amazing week at
work. It is getting busier all round, work and socialising and I'm loving it
all.
My writing has been a bit slower this week, but I am editing
and feel that I'm getting closer to sorting out that soggy middle. Today at the
‘Yorkshire Grey’ meeting - YGAW, so many great critiques were given which is
what I needed. Extra passion is needed to show how ineffectual my main
character feels being unable to do anything about the situation he is
witnessing. I think this will give it that added darkness and grit it needs. I've
got lots to do and slowly running out of time! I have a deadline and can’t afford
to miss this one.
Now I was going to set a Halloween theme for this week’s
challenge, but I've decided not to do that, however I do feel that I need to
share this lovely big fella with you all. He was found after dismantling an old
rabbit hutch. He was so amazing, posing for the pictures. I on the other hand
was a little scared that he might jump – thankfully he didn't.
Your writing task is to create a piece of writing that will
use the spider in this image as your starting point. What you do from there is
up to you. Perhaps you would like to write a piece from the point of view of
the spider, a child or the panicking spider hater with a swat.
So go on, get writing.
