A Free Lunch [Some words from Liar's Kingdom]

By Ewan on Tue, 22 Oct 2024

Some words from the middle of Liar's Kingdom - about 22 pages further on in the manuscript. I always have a "bolt-hole" manuscript, for when the main project isn't going well. Liar's Kingdom is now performing this function for Prospero Vint. I've put this with the early parts of LK which I posted on here nearly 10 years ago Image is PD from Wikipedia

1. They don't much like a prologue at all
2. If they let you get away with it, it will have to be short and punchy. <1500 words
3. You'll need a cold open, (start in medias res) and it will need...

 whatever's in the news.

BTW, as kids we used to sing "Who Put Your Lights Out?" to one of Dana's minor hits.

You can't fool me, that's Dana International up there in that photograph, at least she's had a shave.

  This second part of The Speedy is today's Pick of the Day. There are several names for this kind of tale, one of them is chain. But that's not important. This is a clever conceit and beautifully executed, PLEASE share on your social media...

 Funny, others' - and the author's own - foibles depicted with an indulgent fondness and, as ever, bringing smiles and laughter. I can think of no better reasons to select this as our Pick of the Day today. Please share on your Social Media,...

Worth reading for Roof Madoc alone ...

Posted on Mon, 11 Nov 2024

  I met her once, as she was big buddies with a friend of mine who lived in the same - English - village around 30 years ago. Lovely woman, filthy sense of humour and no airs or graces whatever. Anyway, enjoyable as always.
