Think of of the fiction!!

It has been a productive week for my muse.  I have given him so much exercise he must have collapsed from exhaustion by this point.  But I have several great projects to show for it and my writing is steadily improving.


The Crown and the cavern started life as 'Picture it and Write' challenge.  It is flash fiction that is a cautionary tale about reading the instructions.
Country Guy and City Girl  are two separate pieces of flash fiction that happen to be the same story from different points of view.  Nice real romance.  I may do a continuation.
A parody  of 'Singing in the rain' that is deliberately of key about the joys of job hunting.  You will be able to tell i have been job hunting for too long that day.  I clearly needed a break.
A walk in the rain  A nice short poem :)

You know you are a student when...

When you can't afford not to be working on one assessment or the other.
When you can't afford to spend anything outside of bills or you might not make it through summer.
When you see more of you computer than you do your partner.
When you panic and seize the nearest piece of paper to jot down an inspiration.
When you begin to write/type in coffee chains, buses, bus stops and even work.
When coffee seems like a cure-all.
When the easiest way to socialise is to convince people they really want to go out drinking.
And finally,
When you realise that most of the people you work with are poorly under-educated about their jobs.
