Savvy Book – The Doll House
The Doll House, by Phoebe Morgan. Picked this book up at Lavenham Literary Festival, after attending a session about How To Get Published by the author. It’s not my usual genre – I tend to prefer literary fiction to popular thrillers. But, following on from the read, I have now eliminated the snob from within. Sure, The DollContinue reading “Savvy Book – The Doll House”

Silly Writing Tips – How to enjoy editing ..
Feeling glum. Editing is really not fun. Enjoyed the writing part but, on getting to the end, realised I had to go back to the beginning and start all over again, skimming, scanning and slicing. My so-called whole book is marred by the workings of my gubbins, i.e. the muddle that is the wayContinue reading “Silly Writing Tips – How to enjoy editing ..”
Silly Adventure – Lavenham Guildhall
I stop by at Lavenham to attend a session at the Village Hall, by author Phoebe Morgan, about How to Get Published.

MyContinue reading “Silly Adventure – Lavenham Guildhall”

Silly Poem – Transformation
On top form, she feels transported out of her formative years. Transported into a world, in which she is transformed into the form of her own muse. She is her own fairy godmother, her own fully-formed creation.

Silly Adventure – Stranded in Cornard
Not sure what I’m thinking of but, for some strange reason, I give Hubby a loan of DD, my beloved, if somewhat unreliable, Dacia. Thinking I need some exercise, I get Hubby to drop me off at the far end of Cornard, en route to his workplace. I find myself deposited upon the pavement inContinue reading “Silly Adventure – Stranded in Cornard”
Silly Poem – Divvy Dong
A response to Boris’ fine use of alliteration in his ‘dribble, drift, delay and dither’ drivel of a ‘Get Brexit Done!’ campaign. Boris, dithering, dipped and dripped. “Well, I’ll be danged, if I didn’t deliver!” he drivelled, demented, dribbling, and delayed.

Silly Poem – The Sameness of Buns
In protest against the standards of sameness in bun-size, required by Pru & Co. in today’s episode of Junior British Bake-Off. All similar and consistent in size, great texture and beautifully shaped, well-coloured and spiced, looks lovely and tastes delicious, but missing a bit of the … indefinable three-dimensional character that comes with beingContinue reading “Silly Poem – The Sameness of Buns”
