The Moon and Sixpence. W.Somerset Maugham

Hi Occlith, I'm glad you liked my poem, thanks.

Thank you, stigmaticman.

She didn’t understand what the lady meant but she couldn’t wait for an explanation. She left the bus, still puzzling over the woman’s reply and walked bang into someone. With a hasty apology, she stepped back, as did the girl she had collided with. The girl was about ten, wearing a cotton...

The earlier challenges did not specify a word length. This one did. More important is the number of participants. I think I'll wait fo a couple of days and see if someone participates/ confirms participation. No fun going solo.

I create deadlines, they turn frankensteinian. So I beat them. Daily targets: While writing a first draft, an increase of 1500 words per day While editing / revising, 3000 words per day. Stimulant: I open an ebook, something I have read earlier and liked, in a second window and switch...

Hi, I saw the challenge yesterday. It immediately sparked off an idea but 3K word length is daunting, in terms of time to be spent on what is essentially a fun exercise. If word lengh is flexible and there are other participants, I wouldn't mind having a go.
