Writers Group July sometime

Two of us read our work aloud. I thought that Elizabeth's account of her first day in employment was poignant and competent but I still don't know why she uses random capital letters. When I enquired she answered me with a dreamy murmur. David had been too busy to write so he read aloud an extract from a fiction book. We discussed both texts.

My contribution, a thousand words about my writing day, for the Park Publications Competition, barely altered their breathing patterns and when I'd finished they were sitting with their noses in the air saying,

'Hmm'. We had coffee on the terrace and there was twenty minutes left to write and read aloud - about our first day at school.

Today I am planning to read, Seasons of My Life.

Publisher; Orion Books

Author; Hannah Hauxwell with Barry Cockcroft

Title; Seasons of My Life

AND a grammar book. À bientôt!
