Story and Poem of the Week and Inspiration Point

Posted by Insertponceyfrenchnamehere on Fri, 08 Dec 2023

As we lurch towards Christmas and the music whenever you step into a shop becomes more and more raucous, ABCTales is such an oasis of creativity in which to take a pause. Thank you all so much for being a part of it

I have a couple of very honourable mentions for you first this week - Turlough's 100 words a day This Sort of Thing is an absolute pleasure to read, and Rhiannonw's walk Up to the Hoar Frost an icy delight. Do read them:

My choice for Story of the Week is Mark Say's really excellent The Man in the Crypt, and Poem of the Week goes to socialeaf for his beautiful Satsuma Rinds - very big congratulations to both!

Sooo True* yes... Thx for that.. I'm not a Grinch, enjoying the season in my own way,... but what you wrote there is a bit like 2 aspirin for the creative literary soul.... escaping into ABC.. reading & exploring the past & present.... is a soothing escape for sure*angel
