Story and Poem of the Week and Inspiration Point

Posted by Philip Sidney on Fri, 02 Aug 2019

What a week for ranting - i'm in a particularly ranty mood myself so took great pleasure in the green calm of Di Hard's delectable and thought-provoking poem https://www.abctales.com/story/dihard/grassjuly - it's our  poem of the week.

I really enjoyed the discussion of the possible reading of this poem too - it would be wonderful to hear our writers reading their work.

I would love to hear Hudson Moon reading his story aloud too:   https://www.abctales.com/story/hudsonmoon/gym-shorts-and-sneakers-1963 - his account of 60s school life American style rang a few bells and is beautifully captured - so it's our story of the week.

I do hope you have a go at recording your pieces it would be great to listen and read...

Here's the inspiration point: https://www.abctales.com/inspiration-point-ip 

Have a great week!

would it be possible to have a permanent bit on the home page, where people could put in a link to reading their work on youtube/soundcloud etc? So everyone's readings are gathered together? Or maybe start a permanent thread in forum somewhere?

 

We are working on something Di - stay tuned!
