I hear you! The start of my novel was painful. Less so now, thankfully. But this was easy, so I’ll think I’ll write more shorts as I’m working on the bigger book. It feels like an easier way to get to the end!
Your short story was riveting. I was reluctantly sucked in from the first sentence, feeling like I don't have time to read this. I felt my shoulders drop when you relaxed over tea. I didn't even know your words had me in suspense. I'm currently in the middle of reinventing myself right now, a massive overhaul. This story touched me. Keep going.
Love the story within the mote, Lisa!! Good one!
Thanks! Lots of positive commentary here. Maybe I should refine it and enter it into a couple of comps? 😁
Bloody love that story x
And it bloody loves you! Thanks 😁😍
Thanks Lisa. Great thought provoking piece, and the nudge I needed to start thinking about a new book. Starting is the hardest part I reckon...

Thank you, Marguerite. I think we all need to connect a little more and that’s what I wanted to express in these few short paragraphs.
I agree. There is a connection defiency that a lot of us are feeling.
