Flash Fiction at the Women’s Institute
Blog 15 – Flash Fiction at the Women’s Institute. Spot Ms Paige Turner’s intentional fib for a free glass of bubbly.
No-one got the free glass of bubbly last week. Dave McLurcan posted that there is no UK second class postage but then Dave McLurcan – an actor with my A-One Theatre company in the eighties – has spent too long doing gigs in Fuengirola to know that of course we still have second class postage. Dave McLurcan had a scorchingly sexy way of singing David Bowie’s Space Odyssey and he probably still does out there in Fuengirola. Although sometimes I do feel like Major Tom with this blog. Does Ground Control actually exist?
So the free glass of bubbly is still up for grabs at the Creative Ink Publishing Book Launch of Patricia Sentinella’s collection Dear John, Dear Anyone …on Thursday 16th June at the Fitzwilliams Centre, Beaconsfield at 12.15pm: free cheese, biscuits and coffee, a few poems and questions from the floor. Patricia’s book will be on sale for £7.99. Lucy Cork at the Bucks Examiner says ‘I was gripped from page one’ so come along and have a good time. http://beaconsfield.buckinghamshireadvertiser.co.uk/
Keep those Dear John missives coming in for the Creative Ink Publishing competition. The entry fee of £5 goes directly to the British Heart Foundation and the local Hearts & Souls and we are making money for them already.
Creative Ink for Writers classes are brimming over with words and writers and I recently had a party of a day teaching Flash Fiction to the local Women’s Institute. Believe me, those ladies can really rock …
I’m teaching an Adult Learning day – Scriptwriting – on Saturday 11th June at Beaconsfield so call 0845 045 4040 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 0845 045 4040 end_of_the_skype_highlighting if you would like a place.
