A Day in the Life & A Play With Word Count
Hey Siri. Ding. What time is it? It’s 6:15am. Way too early. (She’s hilarious). My alarm is set for 6:35am but I decide to get up anyway. I hear Gidget stretching and I ask her how she is. She stretches again, shakes herself as dogs do, and pounces on the spot right by my head,…

Opinion Piece
Aren’t all my posts just my opinion? I’m supposed to critique something or give my opinion on a topic. I don’t like critiquing things (except punctuation and grammar of course – I love that!) but I do have a lot of opinions about a lot of things. Today though, I think I’ll discuss this writing…

We Were Together.
We were together. I forget the rest. -Walt Whitman She lay awake. It was too early for sleep and her body knew that. Betraying her brain. She was bone tired. Turning off the television, she let the remote fall to the floor, thinking she would probably step on it in the morning. As she…

Peace
“I’m out!” she shouted from the doorway, as she hitched her massive handbag up on her shoulder, opened the door and pulled her sunglasses down from on top of her head. She heard grumbling goodbyes from her workmates as she closed the door behind her and she felt bad, for just a moment, about leaving…

Wherever I Lay My Hat (or iPhone)
For The Daily Post’s Writing Course : Finding Everyday Inspiration. Today, we’re tasked to write a post based on a One-Word Inspiration. They gave us six words: hope, regret, home, choice, secret, abundance. I chose Home. I have many places that I call home. My parents live in Central Queensland, so that’s definitely home. Home is…
