This week’s writing went as follows:

Write a little bit. Stop. Write a little bit. Stop. Delete all. Repeat. Laptop breaks. Take a day or two to fix laptop. Repeat initial steps again. And so I missed our writing club’s semi-self imposed goal for the week.

Still, it was still a fairly productive week. I did a good bit of planning for another story for the Margery Allingham writing competition and am actually pretty happy with what I came up with, so that’s what I’ll be trying to bash out over the next few days. I also submitted a flash fiction story to a competition (earning this pretty hilarious badge below) and was able to give feedback on some of the writing group’s work.

Speaking of which, there are two exciting bits of news on the writing club front. Firstly, we have another new member! Rebecca Douglas is our latest addition and so the crew now stands at 5. Follow her on that Instagram link.

Secondly – this week, to ensure you’ve a little something to read, Hazel O’Rourke has kindly volunteered to upload some of her work. Please, please give both her stories a read. They’re short reads and I promise they’ll blow you away. You can find them on Hazel’s profile page above, or if you’re in a hurry – you can find NYC here, and Snow here.

That’s all for this week. Keeping it short as I want to get on to writing myself. Thanks, as always, for reading!
