Bronte's Inferno XXXI (It's Just Lazy, Isn't It?)

There really isn't any point in starting here. You really need to start at the beginning, which you COULD find via a link at the end of this one. Yes, you could begin at the end... image is PD from OpenClipArt.com ... But I drew on it.

Godot's Ghost

I've read Waiting for Godot about half-a-dozen times and seen it twice on stage many years ago. I can never make up my mind if Godot is God or death, or if Estragon and Vladimir are in Hell or Purgatory or in a care home near Clacton-on-Sea. Anyway, this isn't really about Didi and Gogo.

White noise

Posted on Mon, 17 Aug 2020

is played very loud as an "interrogation" technique by most intelligence agencies. That's the point , government people know about Rueda's phone. It's easy enough to keep track of a mobile, even if it's switched off. Teniente Elizondo doesn't...

Hi Ed,

loved this. Any reason for "night-lite" vice "night-light"? You have "nite-lite" at the end. Should "swats" in "swats-for-mocks" be swots (like I was)?

Well done.

with them Stephen, and for spotting the typo. I'm not sure where it's going yet, but it's not going anywhere before next week as I've a few things to do until Friday.

I think violence generally is sudden and shocking. The threat of...

I enjoyed this.

I'd seen this yesterday. A bit of a sideways look itself, as I'm sure you intended.

I cannot tell you...

Builds well.

I wonder if you could have strung (ho,ho) the reader along a little longer. Not reveal that there are no strings quite yet. No matter. I'd be interested to read part II. Some might protest that your piece is a little over-written, but I think,...
