Inspiration Point story by jingle
They are beginning to appear again. Jingle has made a good stab at this week's - but it could be bettered!

Thanks for the interest and the comment Tony. I have made some alterations to clarify the status of the girl. I hope it reads better now.

I might be wrong, Jingle, but I think Tony meant "it could be bettered" in the throwing-down-the-gauntlet-to-everyone-else sense, not in the sense of "this needs some alterations".

Sean, I'm sure you're right and I look forward to reading any others on the same subject. Having said that I became aware that the status of the girl was a bit ambiguous so I took the opportunity to clarify it. I've no doubt that it can still be bettered, I might even have another go at it myself. As to the origin of the quotes given by Tony I can't that it matters where they come from. The idea is surely to generate some creative thought, whether in poetry or any other form?

Don't want to sound like a moaner, but I've been struggling to get anything out of the last two IPs. As a poet, sentences from novels don't really do it for me.
Can we have some words/phrases? Like: "polish" or "iron lung"?

Sure - but you just take a word from a sentence. I'll try and come up with something different for this week.
