Get A Life!~Chapter 2

As I sat in the lounge car of the Caledonian Sleeper Train with several other people, I looked out of the window, whilst drinking a cup of steaming hot chocolate, nibbling on a Danish pastry and trying not to get crumbs on my blouse…



Get A Life!

Working Girl~Dreams Are Like Angels

I wasn’t too bad looking. At 20 and a bit years old, I didn’t have those nooks and crannies that some women have when they get a bit older. Things hadn’t started to go south yet either, you know, droopy boobs, saggy tummy and a bum that looked like orange peal...

‘I was somewhat tired after the sing-along and it was obvious to the sensible adults that after everything that had happened to me, I needed rest and some quiet time...

My reflection showed a quite pretty girl, regretfully of about thirteen. I just wished that I looked my age.
Then I smiled ruefully, knowing for a fact that when I was an ancient forty,

I would wish to look twenty!

Jocasta and Doctor Marcia looked at each other. I couldn’t really read their expressions too well, but I think that they looked puzzled.

‘Sorry, do you know my Aunt?’

His other hand grabbed my arm, the arm that still had a vivid and nasty bruise, caused, you guested it, by the slime ball standing in front of me...

‘ I waited for a moment and knocked again. The cat brushed up against my leg, no doubt in the hope that the door would magically open.

It didn’t.

I'm sorry

Hi all,

I have to apologise for not writing much lately.

Real life has intruded and stopped me from doing much.

Firstly, we are trying to move and the sale is being a bit of a b*g*er. Secondly, my work is taking up most of my spare time. thirdly, I am in the middle of changing over to the Dark Side and am converting to an Apple Mac.

Hopefully, things will settle down soon and I will be able to inflict my woeful writings on my unsuspecting public once again.

Football Girl~Season 2~Final Chapter

Andrea had disappeared out of sight and no one knew where she had gone.

Auntie Monica was frantic with worry, Claire looked shell shocked and I–Well I felt all of those things and above all guilty for putting her through all the heartache...

The Power~1


It was quiet, very quiet, if you don't count the owls hooting and the scurrying of small mammals as they searched for food.

Oh, and then there were bats. I don't like bats much, nothing personal, but the sound of leathery wings and high pitched squeaks just don't do it for me...

I looked at him and he looked at me.

‘I’m sorry if I’ve done something wrong...’I started.

The phone rang and the officer frowned. He looked like he enjoyed his job and that the interruption wasn’t welcome.

He picked up the phone.

‘Yes?’

He looked up at me sharply and then spoke to the nameless one at the other end...

Biscuit, my lovely cat

My lovely, wonderful, funny cat Biscuit is no longer with us.

We got him from a rescue centre and he was the cat with the loudest purr. He was a one off individual who loved to show how big and butch he was. Mind you, he ran away at the slightest sign of trouble and so was a bit of a fake in the matcho stakes.

Victims of our own success?

I put on another chapter of Football Girl 23 hours ago. Having just looked at the home page, I note that there have been no less than 25 new stories put on since then.

Is this some sort of record? I wonder if that 'other place' with the initials FM get that sort of new story count.

It's a great testament to Erin and her hard working co-workers that this site is so successful.

‘Keep your voice down; do you want everyone to hear us?

He looked around nervously and then turned back to me.

‘Look, it’s no big deal, just fluff a throw in and the job’s done.’

I was wearing a smart, cream suit with a white silk blouse. The skirt went to just below my knees and was tailored with a single pleat to the front. I hoped that I looked in businesslike mode, as I had serious business to attend to...

Football Girl UK footie fan editor needed!

Hi Peeps,

I write a little thing called Football Girl. Since losing our lovely Gabi last year, I have not had an editor. I have just re-read the last chapter and am a cringing wreck as I have noticed several bloopers of the first order.

Being dyslexic means that I miss things, forget things, misspell lots and generally lose the plot.

I have a dent in the wall where I keep banging it with my head with frustration sometimes. The occasional glass of wine helps dull the pain - well that's my excuse anyway!

Changes: Dreams and Wishes 4

As I walked in, all my fears and doubts came to the surface. I wanted to turn around and run away–away from those eyes, all looking at me; especially one pair...

Did I just look like a boy dressed up as a girl and was I kidding myself that these people would help?

Changes: Dreams and Wishes 3

There was a mix of ages from the very young to the very old. Everyone seemed to know each other and there were lots of hugs and handshakes.

I felt a bit left out; all these families and friends and I had no one. Was I asking too much to be part of a proper family?

Dreams and Wishes, I can't finish it!

Here I sit in Sue Towers, quill pen in hand - well it's a keyboard, but what's poetic about a lump of plastic.?

Outside it is dark and the wind is coming up, (too many curries). My typing finger is wearing down to the bone as the story just gets longer and longer.

First I thought that I could do the story in one, easy to manage and digest lump. Then it got too long and as I know that some readers have a short attention span and anything over one thousand words might cause a brain freeze (that's an ironic joke by the way as I am exactly like that) I decided to do it in two parts.
