This is great! I especially like 'Haven't seen the sea in a long time', for some reason.

Aah, please do! 🙏

It's a good reminder of just how powerful a micro can be. I needed that! 🙏

I absolutely love this story, Matt. It's so clever, the way each sentence and idea builds, organically, from one to the next. This is one to read and re-read... 👏

That is absolutely stunning. Wow!

Congratulations, Sudha! :)

Hi my spooky sapphic Victorian Murder Mystery is "absolute perfection" "hugely enjoyable"

Can two female con artists stop an MP murdering his wife?

Thanks for inviting me to run 'Lost & Found' again! I really enjoyed the other workshops, and the picture prompts were wonderful, Jude.

How lovely! I had no idea (am so rubbish at checking socials!). I hope it all goes really well. To be a fly on the wall... 🫣😉

Ida is wonderful. I still remember it vividly, even though it's a good few years since I saw it.

I am, thanks! I had a listen to your story and it's wonderful. I love how you wrongfoot the reader - in the best possible way. It's somehow funny and poetic and sad, all at the same time. Well done! 👏
