  14. #WritersCoffeeClub – 25th Oct. Tell us about inspiration from an unlikely source.

    My published fiction output across almost 30 years was "The Report From Potter's Point," a serial about characters in a small New England town, appearing at first weekly in three newspapers, and later rebooted to longer monthly installments in a magazine. In all that time, nobody ever had a pet, believe it or not. No dogs. No cats. Not even a goldfish.

    In January 2019 a mini Australian Shepherd entered my life. And now in my current WIP, Jack has a dog named Wolf. (And there are a couple of cats here and there, too.) Who'da thunk?

  21. Charmy’s Army in “DEE SEAST – The Hell of the Ball” – Part 4: The Ethics of the Undead

    <<< Previous COMIC strip NEXT COMIC STRIP >>>

    Our fourth comic strip delves into the bizarre social politics of our newly integrated society. The girls are standing alone, processing the fact that zombies are very much still part of the local ecosystem. The ponytail girl mentions she was planning on dressing up as a zombie for next week’s highly anticipated Halloween Ball—only to be swiftly reprimanded by the blonde! “How offensive! Zombies are people too!” To which her cynical friend delivers the ultimate grammatical reality check: “You mean WERE people too.” The existential weight of politically correct terminology for the reanimated dead leaves them with only one proper exclamation: “Holy macca noodle…”

    The afternoon sun cast long, amber shadows across the town square. Charmy and Dee had vanished down a side alley toward the municipal park, leaving the two girls leaning against the painted wooden railing of the municipal gazebo. The quiet of the town was almost surreal. Pigeons pecked at breadcrumbs near the park benches; children rode bicycles along the paved trails; a street sweeper hummed lazily along the curb. It looked like an idyllic postcard of small-town America, completely masking the fact that just five minutes ago, an actual walking corpse had been drooling near their espresso cups.

    “I still can’t wrap my head around it,” the ponytail girl confessed, kicking a loose pebble into the grass. “I spent forty-five dollars at the pop-up spirit store last Saturday. I bought liquid latex, fake blood made from corn syrup and red dye number forty, prosthetic bone fragments, and a torn flannel shirt. I was going to do the whole nine yards for the annual Halloween Ball. The classic Romero stagger, the dragged left leg, the vacant stare, the works.”

    The blonde turned on her instantly, eyes flashing with righteous indignation, her hands planted firmly on her hips. “Are you out of your mind? Have you completely lost your moral compass? You can’t wear that!”

    The ponytail girl froze, her shoe suspended an inch above the grass. “Why not? It’s Halloween! It’s the one night of the year when everyone dresses up as ghouls, vampires, werewolves, and the undead! It’s tradition!”

    “That was tradition before the invasion,” the blonde lectured, shaking her index finger with schoolmarm authority. “Context matters! Before the outbreak, zombies were fictional archetypes created by cinema and folklore. Now? Now they are our neighbors! They work in our commercial supply chains! They pay municipal parking meters! Dressing up as an undead shambler today is cultural insensitivity at its absolute worst! Zombies are people too!”

    The ponytail girl stared at her companion, her jaw dropping open in sheer, unadulterated disbelief. She let out a laugh that sounded like a tea kettle hitting maximum boil. “Zombies are people too?! Have you suffered a traumatic brain injury while we were standing here? Did the airborne rot fumes finally seep into your prefrontal cortex?”

    “I am simply advocating for basic social decorum,” the blonde insisted, lifting her chin with an air of profound superiority. “Dee is out here trying to assimilate into civil society, overcoming massive systemic prejudice and rampant biological decay, and you want to reduce her painful medical condition to a cheap costume for a Saturday night mixer? It’s callous!”

    “Medical condition?!” the ponytail girl practically shrieked, throwing her head back toward the sky. “She isn’t dealing with chronic seasonal allergies or a mild case of eczema! She’s legally, biologically, and technically deceased! The heart has ceased to beat! The brainwaves are flatlining on every known medical monitor! You don’t say zombies are people too—you say zombies WERE people too! Past tense! Completed action! Finished chapter!”

    The blonde opened her mouth to mount a blistering rebuttal, but the words withered on her tongue. She closed her mouth, looked down at her shoes, glanced sideways at the empty alleyway where Dee had shuffled away, and then looked back up. Her moral superiority melted away into a hollow, glazed stare as the cold, inescapable logic of the English language collided with modern etiquette.

    “Holy macca noodle…” the blonde whispered under her breath, the sheer absurdity of the philosophical rabbit hole collapsing on top of her.

    “Thank you,” the ponytail girl said smugly, crossing her arms over her chest. “Finally, a shred of cognitive sanity returns to the premises. There is no political correctness for a creature that literally had to be reminded not to eat the cashier’s pen. If someone’s skin is peeling off like dry wallpaper and their primary nutritional intake consists of outdated T-bone steaks from the deep discount bin, I am fully within my rights to use past-tense pronouns.”

    “Okay, fine,” the blonde admitted, running both hands through her hair with a defeated groan. “Grammatically speaking, you have a point. But socially speaking, you’re still stepping on a massive landmine. If you show up to that dance dressed as a reanimated corpse, and Dee walks in as Charmy’s date, what do you think is going to happen? Do you think she’s going to appreciate the artistic nuance of your fake prosthetic ribcage?”

    The ponytail girl paused. Her smirk faded, replaced by a sudden, chilling realization. Her eyes darted toward the community center at the end of the block, where a large vinyl banner advertised the upcoming Halloween Ball in bold, festive lettering.

    “Wait…” the ponytail girl said, her voice dropping down an octave. “You don’t actually think Charmy would bring her to the dance, do you? To an indoor event with mood lighting, punch bowls, and a crowded dance floor? That’s an absolute recipe for a public safety incident.”

    “Charmy is completely devoted to her,” the blonde warned, stepping closer. “He takes her to the diner. He walks her down the boulevard. If there is a major social gathering in this town, you can bet your entire savings account that he’s already bought two tickets. And if you think a minor detail like an absence of vital signs is going to keep him from showing her off under the strobe lights, you haven’t been paying attention.”

    The two friends stood in the fading light, the absurdity of the afternoon giving way to a new and far more terrifying prospect: the imminent social collision awaiting them on the dance floor.

  22. *Manchester dates* for The Crucified Silence – Sunday November 22nd – Irish World Heritage Centre. 6pm.

    “A story anyone can relate to…” — Irish Independent

    Click here to secure your ticket now!

    About

    Following acclaimed performances in Athlone, Castlebar, Ballinrobe and Galway, The Crucified Silence comes to Manchester on Sunday 22nd November at 6pm, bringing a distinctive voice from the West of Ireland to the iconic Irish World Heritage Centre.

    Hilarious, heartbreaking and brimming with dark Irish humour, The Crucified Silence is a compelling one-man play written and performed by acclaimed Irish playwright Mick Donnellan. Set in Ballinrobe, Co. Mayo, the story follows Joe, a local guard who has crossed a line after a volatile altercation with his superintendent. As he drinks his way around town, he conjures vivid, nostalgic images of familiar landmarks and meeting places, including The Bowers walk, Art O’Neill’s Bar and Geoff’s pub. These recollections bring his world to life, drawing audiences into a community shaped by its own rhythms, rituals and relationships.

    Yet beneath the laughter lies a deeply moving story of loneliness, loss, regret and the search for connection. Just as Joe’s sharp wit and comic observations have audiences laughing, glimpses of his troubled past reveal a more vulnerable man struggling to come to terms with the life he has lost. The result is a play that can have you laughing out loud one moment and breaking your heart the next.

    Populated by recognisable Irish characters and brought vividly to life through authentic Irish dialect, cultural nuances and a rich tradition of storytelling, the play offers a compelling glimpse into the humour, warmth and complexities of everyday life in rural Ireland. For those familiar with Irish life, there is much to recognise; for those discovering it for the first time, an opportunity to experience a distinctive culture through characters who feel wonderfully real.

    The Venue

    A much-loved hub for Irish culture, arts and community in the North West of England, the Irish World Heritage Centre provides a fitting setting for a play that celebrates Irish storytelling while exploring experiences that transcend borders and backgrounds.

    For Manchester’s Irish community, the evening offers a powerful sense of home, evoking the people, places, humour and shared experiences that connect us to where we come from. It is also a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the strength of Irish theatre and the remarkable stories being created in Ireland and finding audiences beyond its shores.

    Universal Appeal

    Although Joe’s world may be rooted in a small town in Co. Mayo, his struggles are universal. His attempts to make sense of a life shaped by difficult choices, personal loss and fading connections will resonate with anyone, from all cultures and backgrounds, who has ever looked back on their past and wondered how things might have turned out differently.

    With minimal staging and intimate, uncompromising storytelling, the play places audiences face to face with Joe’s inner world, where humour becomes a defence against pain and silence can speak louder than words. Mick Donnellan’s powerful central performance draws audiences towards a devastating climax, balancing theatrical intensity with the feeling of a deeply personal confession.

    All are welcome to join for an evening of big laughs, poignant storytelling, heartbreaking moments and an unforgettable injection of high-quality theatre!

    Spaces limited so be sure to secure your seat as early as possible :)

    About Truman Town:

    Truman Town Theatre exploded on to the theatrical circuit with their Play – Sunday Morning Coming Down. Written and directed by the company’s Artistic Director Mick Donnellan, it immediately sold out the Galway Town Hall Studio for five nights on the first run. Following that, the crew went on tour to Mayo, selling out Lisloughrey Lodge, Cong,The Valkenburg Niteclub, Ballinrobe and the Linenhall in Castlebar. It also enjoyed large audiences on the Main Stage on Galway’s Town Hall and went on a National Tour covering – Glor Ennis, St. John’s Listowel, Cork Arts Theatre and it sold out five nights at The New Theatre, Dublin. It was also performed by DRUID as a public reading during the Galway Arts Festival.

    Truman Town followed this phenomenal success with a second Play – Shortcut to Hallelujah. Again, written and directed by Mick Donnellan, it deals with the curse on the Mayo football team. It sold out the Town Hall Studio, went on tour to Ballinrobe and the Linenhall in Castlebar and then down to St. John’s Theatre, Listowel Co. Kerry where it was requested back to headline Friday night of Listowel Writer’s week.

    Between this, a third drama was produced as part of the Galway Theatre Festival. It was titled Gun Metal Grey.

    Shortcut to Hallelujah returned from Listowel Writer’s Week to perform on the Main Stage Galway for a wildly successful five nights after which Velvet Revolution, the fourth Truman Town production, also written by Mick Donnellan, was premiered in St. John’s Theatre, Listowel. It went on tour to Kilmallock, Kenmare and Waterville, then up to Ballinrobe, on to Galway and ran for ten days as part of the Galway Fringe. Mentioned as a Highlight of the festival by the Irish times, it was subsequently performed in Campbell’s Tavern, Cloghanover, Headford, Electric Picnic and The New Theatre, Temple Bar, Dublin.

    Radio Luxembourg, Mick’s fifth Play, was bought by a London Film Company (Dixon/Baxi/Evans) and has been adapted for the screen. The title for the movie version is “Tiger Raid”. Starring Brian Gleeson, Damian Molony and Sofia Boutella, it was accepted into the Tribeca film festival (New York) and was seen at Cannes and Edinburgh. The Irish Premiere was screened at the Galway Film Fleadh.

    Currently Mick is working on the exciting screen adaptation of Shortcut to Hallelujah with Florence Films. The screenplay is titled Sam and is based around the curse supposedly put on the Mayo Football team as they returned home as All Ireland Champions in 1951.  Drenched in Irish lyricism and modern day dark humour, the script has been met with keen interest by film producers and actors throughout the industry.

    Between writing projects, Mick has enjoyed roles as a lecturer in writing at University of Ireland and TUS Athlone.

    Local judges might rule on ICE intrusions in the community. Local sheriffs might decide whether or not to cooperate with ICE. County legislators might have input on the building permits for large data centers. Your local town board might decide to allow or disallow Flock cameras.

    Don't think the local offices matter less than Congress. They have direct impact in your locality, so take them just as seriously.

  26. A place is the easiest thing in the world to describe and the hardest to describe without giving it away. That is what makes places such a good category for this kind of game. Everyone knows a market, a ferry or a launderette, and everyone has a different memory of it. These 30 imposter game words about places are picked for that mix of familiarity and surprise.

    What makes a place a good word?


    A place with a smell, a sound and a routine. A ferry terminal has engines and gulls; a launderette has warmth and a hum. A clue about the sound is true and personal. A clue about the function is safe and obvious. The strongest words allow both, and the table argues about which a clue was.

    Around town


    1. launderette
    2. market stall
    3. ferry terminal
    4. bus depot
    5. town hall
    6. car wash
    7. betting shop
    8. roundabout
    9. cash machine
    10. phone box


    Leisure and nature


    1. bowling alley
    2. boating lake
    3. allotment
    4. caravan park
    5. observatory
    6. skating rink
    7. beer garden
    8. fairground
    9. ski slope
    10. rock pool


    Buildings with a story


    1. clock tower
    2. windmill
    3. castle ruin
    4. lock-up
    5. tollbooth
    6. canal lock
    7. church hall
    8. lighthouse stairs
    9. old cinema
    10. railway footbridge


    How do you clue a place?


    Use the senses. For "launderette", "warm" or "humming" works. For "ferry terminal", "salt" or "waiting". Avoid the function, because the spy will guess it. And avoid famous landmarks by name, since they identify the word at once.

    How does the spy handle a place category?


    The spy hears the category and thinks of types: indoor or outdoor, busy or quiet, old or new. The first clue from a civilian narrows these. The risk for a spy is giving a clue that fits only one kind of place. A safe spy says something sensory and general: "busy", "echoey", "bright".

    What do civilians do wrong?


    They name the activity. If the word is "bowling alley", "pins" is the first clue everyone thinks of. A better clue is the smell of shoes, or the sound of a strike from the next lane. Sensory clues give the spy less and prove more.

    How do you play it as a story game?


    After the reveal, each player says a memory they have of the place. The table learns how differently the same word lands for people. It is a quiet, warm way to end a round.

    How do you add your own places?


    Write down ten places from your own neighbourhood, the ones your friends would know: the bakery on the corner, the park with the broken swing, the station café. Local words are the strongest fuel for a spy game online or offline, because every player has a memory of them and nobody outside the group can bluff. Mix them with the list above, and the table will find itself laughing at its own streets.

    It also helps to include a few places that are almost the same, like a launderette and a car wash, so the clues overlap and the suspicion grows.

    Playing it online and at home


    The game deals the words, so you can play who's the spy with a table of three to eight, or twelve around one phone, without preparing anything.

    A closing thought


    A good place word is a small door into a memory. Use it to let the table in, and give each player a moment after the reveal to say where they last stood in that very place. The stories are better than the scores.

  27. To all those who want to just sit this one out and not vote because you don’t want to hold your nose and vote for someone because they don’t represent your views or they are playing the politics game and you just don’t want to be involved in all that or your values are too important, just remember people fought and died so you could vote or not. If you keep sitting it out, there will come a time when there is no longer an option to vote. None. No voice, no vote, no democracy. If you believe so strongly then fight! Run for office, help someone who is running for office, go to town halls, speak up. Don’t sit back and complain about what others are fighting for. Vote and hold the winner accountable. Don’t think they won’t come for you just because you didn’t vote. You like authoritarian government? Don’t vote. You’ll get one. It is your fault if you don’t vote. You are a citizen and as a citizen you are responsible for upholding our democracy.
