I confess I'm more of a dog

Posted on Sat, 13 Jan 2018

I confess I'm more of a dog than a cat person - unless they're Big cats! - but this is lovely. Effortlessly long sentences with interesting ideas like the ferry bit or the clock bit. And you've captured the rhythm of the cat's purring throughout...

What a reawakening. I liked this a lot and looked up where Tobermorey is - looks beautiful. Really liked the line about losing the arrows. Lovely ending.

I really like this - how the lines are spaced out, the imaginative words and how it makes you think of things.

Posted on Sat, 25 Nov 2017

I think this has struck a chord with all of us. It's very clever, seems well thought out even though you say it's automatic. I sometimes think that so many children are unhappy in school and aren't aware that each other is. It can be a cruel...

Posted on Thu, 06 Jul 2017

Congratulations. I liked this, it has the pace of someone sitting back in a  chair on a veranda. I like how you are writing easily and feeling surprised by that. Probably the way we write best is the one that comes naturally so just go with it...

Great reply. And I think our confusion/reluctance/apathy is all down to PR lies, over the centuries, you can see it from the Norman oppression of the Anglo Saxons to the British Empire. So yes, keep telling the truth.

I loved this. At the moment I have a heap load of characters stuck in a tardis sized plot which is floating aimlessly through space. I am now concerned that they are all talking to each other and there is going to be some sort of rebellion and...

I love the stillness of this and the faith of knowing something's there when you can't see it.
