I do enjoy Sue Vincent’s #writephoto prompt. Her photos are always so evocative, and sometimes the strangest story fragments come to me. This one is probably a bit odd, but then there are legends of standing stones that ‘walk.’ So, maybe they like to lie down for a rest, as well… ‘I don’t know aboutContinue reading “#writephoto – Fallen”

Maiden Mother Crone, Part 7 – The Dance
It was Sunday morning, and it was raining again. But I breakfasted with friends, warmth and laughter a pleasant way to begin the day. Outside, a raven wandered along the wooden fence – one of our group remarked on him, as he was quite unusually large. ‘He was there yesterday, as well,’ I said. SueContinue reading “Maiden Mother Crone, Part 7 – The Dance”
Maiden Mother Crone, Part 4 – Imbalance
Sigh. I should have expected this. On the last Silent Eye weekend I’d attended there had been a place that had shaken me, unexpectedly, making my breath shorten, my heart pound. And so it is, I suppose. On these weekends we are challenged as well as inspired, and beauty can hold darkness as well asContinue reading “Maiden Mother Crone, Part 4 – Imbalance”
A Small Update
Life has been extremely busy of late. Part of it has been getting back into the routine of work and school and extracurricular activities, part of it has been all the writing I’m trying to cram in to every spare moment. For I am writing a LOT at the moment. Funny, the busier we getContinue reading “A Small Update”

On a hot day such as this one the thought of winter is almost welcome, to be honest. Today isContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – Stonehenge and Solstice”
Beltaine Fire and Butterfly Dreams
Today is May Day, or Beltaine in the old calendar, the first day of summer and the festival that falls halfway between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice. The garden is green and humming, the blossom almost gone, the promise of Summer’s warmth just over the horizon. Last night I dreamed of a purple butterflyContinue reading “Beltaine Fire and Butterfly Dreams”
#writephoto – Enigma – Your Fault
Sue Vincent’s #writephoto challenge runs every week, and is a prompt based on one of her wonderful photographs. Here’s my response to this week’s image: ‘This is all your fault.’ ‘Humph!’ ‘Don’t you ‘humph!’ at me. We wouldn’t be in this mess if you hadn’t insisted on staying till the last minute. As if youContinue reading “#writephoto – Enigma – Your Fault”
