  1. #WritersCoffeeClub 27th Sep ~ How much time passes between sitting down to write and actually writing?

    It depends what stage I'm at and what type of story I'm writing...

    #WritingContest - I brainstorm ideas until I land on one I like. Maybe up to half a day.

    #ShortStory - I plan for nearly a week before I throw out the plan and start to write.

    #WIP - I re-read certain chapters and my notes before I start. Maybe an hour or so.

  11. I wrote a short story about The Gladiators of Pompeii for the Ancient Fanfiction Writing Contest of SASA Save Ancient Studies Alliance. It was fun. The pic shows my moodboard of the books I used while writing.

  26. Imagined Endings

    Perhaps you remember the “Dear Aliens” contest? Maybe you even submitted a story to be shared with our alien visitors? 

    Mr Man and I have had a lot going on over the past few months so I did not get a story together, but I’m glad that many of you did. And now, the winners have been announced!

    To Those Arriving Soon by MacEagon Voyce

    “You’ll know by now that we humans fear the unknown, and that we fill that chasm with stories, imagining endings we have some agency over.”

    See the full list for the top ten stories, and enjoy!
