After seeing quite a few trailers for #TheElectricState I've had it on my watch list as a 'curio' πŸ€” ... I finally watched it last night 😎 Although it's got some predictable #ScriptWriting #Narrative components & some scathing reviews it's quirky & fun πŸ˜€πŸ’œβ€οΈ

For me, the judging for the March #TwistedTournament is now complete 😊 ... The standard of entries was very high, meaning that it was sometimes difficult to choose 1 over another πŸ€”πŸ˜± I'm now looking forward to the 13th, 14th and 15th of April to see my own results and feedback πŸ’œβ€οΈπŸ˜Ž #WritingCommunity

Although it's been a difficult week (or 10 ... IYKYK πŸ’”) sometimes writing can be cathartic occupying your mind on other things πŸ€”πŸ’œβ€οΈ Despite being close to a couple of DNF's I submitted 3 complete stories for this ... Now onto the judging 🀞

I haven't written much lately due to some stuff going on in life ... Hoping this #NYCMidnight #MicrofictionChallenge100 will help as a mini diversion though writing a fairy tale with potential world building aspects is especially challenging in 100 words πŸ˜±πŸ€”

I wasn't longlisted in the #NotQuiteWritePodcast FleshFiction #WritingCompetition but I'm extremely proud of the spotlight they awarded me πŸ˜‰β€οΈπŸ’œπŸ˜Ž. Writing smut is not my usual forte so colour me intrigued at what the judges saw in my attempt. For now, the title & my pseudonym will remain a mystery πŸ€”πŸ˜‰

That was tricky but it's in. My 1st 500 words didn't cut it and neither did my 2nd idea. What's been submitted is a bit of a weird left field narrative. Here's hoping the judges like it πŸ€žπŸ™ƒπŸ’œβ€οΈπŸ˜Ž

I wasn't sure at 1st but ended up loving this 'gruesome alternative' of #AliceInWonderland ... Or should I say rather, that, Yes Christina Henry used some names which makes it feel familiar but OMG, she then took the known & expected tale down a dark alley leaving blood (& worse) in her wake πŸ˜πŸ«£πŸ˜±πŸ’œβ€οΈ

As a writer & fan of Lee Child, this was a great Christmas gift 😎 Although its primary content is the 'story behind the stories' (ideation) you also gain insight into his writing processes (it seems he's a pantser rather than plotter which surprised me) πŸ€”πŸ˜±πŸ’œβ€οΈπŸ˜Ž
