Sue Vincent’s #writephoto is a wonderful source of inspiration, and this week she’s shared this beautiful photo as her prompt. She also shared another post, Breaking the Rules, which featured an interpretation of a Pablo Neruda poem that really spoke to me. The words that came to me were inspired by both of them. AndContinue reading “#writephoto – Dark”

#writephoto Sanctuary
Sue Vincent’s #writephoto is one of my favourite blog writing prompts. The photos she chooses are always so inspiring, and she gets such a variety of responses to the same image. I don’t always get a story but, when I do, they come immediately. This one appeared when I saw her image for this week:Continue reading “#writephoto Sanctuary”
#writephoto – Sunset
Sue Vincent runs an excellent weekly writing prompt called #writephoto, where she shares a wonderful, evocative picture from her collection, and you have until the following Wednesday to write something inspired by it. Here’s this week’s photo, and this is my response: He liked to leave the house at sunset. Once the lamps had beenContinue reading “#writephoto – Sunset”
#writephoto – Wall Hanging
I’m still writing up my weekend away with The Silent Eye, but thought I’d take a quick foray into this week’s #writephoto challenge, courtesy of Sue Vincent. ‘Is it a bit much?’ ‘We-ell–‘ ‘I mean, it’s nice and bright, isn’t it? The red and the green?’ ‘Yes, but–‘ ‘And that’s kind of Christmassy too, whichContinue reading “#writephoto – Wall Hanging”
#writephoto – Fire Dance
‘‘A firedance through the night.’ What d’you suppose they meant by that?’ ‘Who?’ ‘That band, you know the ones, all floppy hair and white teeth. You know, catchy melodies. They had fancy lyrics, too.’ ‘Oh, yeah. I dunno.’ ‘You dunno the band, or you dunno what they meant?’ “Both. It was a while ago, wasn’tContinue reading “#writephoto – Fire Dance”
#writephoto – To The Seven
Another lovely #writephoto prompt from Sue Vincent. If you’d like to participate, you have until Wednesday next week to respond to the prompt. Here is my response: They say I had a glass casket. That I was surrounded by flowers, a wonder of the woods. But the truth is far simpler than that. After all,Continue reading “#writephoto – To The Seven”
#writephoto – Twilight
I haven’t done a #writephoto for a couple of weeks, mainly because I’ve had a couple of quite insistent book ideas nagging at me, so have been focusing on them. Oh, and there was also the Blogger’s Bash this past weekend, where I had the great pleasure of seeing Sue, along with many other bloggingContinue reading “#writephoto – Twilight”
#writephoto – When The Water Falls
‘You been here long?’ ‘No, not really.’ ‘Me either,’ I say, dragging my finger through the water pooling on the sill. ‘Still, it’s weird, isn’t it?’ ‘What?’ ‘Well, like, I don’t think I’ve been here long. But on the other hand I can’t remember ever not being here… So I don’t know.’ ‘I remember singing.’Continue reading “#writephoto – When The Water Falls”
#writephoto – Waiting
It’s another #writephoto challenge from Sue Vincent, and this week our prompt is this evocative photo of sunset over the ocean. There seemed to be something melancholy about the image – perhaps it’s the combination of the obelisk and the setting sun. This is the poem that came to me: Waiting I wait upon theContinue reading “#writephoto – Waiting”
#writephoto – Shore – The Meeting
This week Sue’s #writephoto prompt is a lovely image of sea and sand. Here is my (short but hopefully sweet) response: The Meeting Curving, carving, A river through sand A ribbon of silver Meeting the sea Dancing, splashing A foaming blue line An endless cycle Meeting the land If you enjoyed this post andContinue reading “#writephoto – Shore – The Meeting”
