#Writephoto Round-Up – TRACTOR

Never to early

To start the day

Never let the weather

Get in your way

Go through the fog

Dance in the Hale

Laze in the sunshine

Let the wind blow a gale

Don’t let it stop you

from living your life large

Enjoy each moment

The weather’s not in charge

Like this little tractor, I’m still chugging my way through nano. At the time of writing, I’ve made it to 23k words. That’s including managing to do a little whilst away. Last week, we went on a family holiday to Butlins. We won a hoard of lovely treasures at the 2p machines and were wow’d by Thomas the Tank Engine. Happy Toddler, Happy Mama. Hope you are all keeping well. Thank you all for your marvellous entries.

#Writephoto Round-Up – Fog

Descending on the countryside

Coming in quick

The gloom descends

Pea Soup thick!

I love fog. Well, I don’t like to drive in it! But I do like to take an early walk on a foggy morning or curl up with a hot cuppa and book whilst the world is shrouded in a grey blanket outside. This foggy image was taken on the grounds of Raby Castle. It was eerie to see the way the fog was moving up the river towards us. Even the ducks had gone quiet.

Another fabulous collection of entries to last week’s collection. Thank you all so much. I’ll look forward to having a big cuppa and making my way through this lot. I’m taking part in NaNoWriMo this month. Has anyone else taken part? Any tips?

#Writephoto Round-Up – A Gargoyle at the Cemetery

As I walked through the cemetery gates
Something caught my eye
Watching me as I walked along
Was two eyes up in the sky

I peered at him for a long time
before I turned to go
As I did his eyes did blink
It sounds like madness I know!

I turned back around and walked up close
To get a better look
A cawing sound pierced the sky
And behind him appeared a rook

It must have been that which I had glanced
I gave a nervous laugh
And turned to walk back down
The cemetery path

My visit complete I glanced again
At the Gargoyle in the sky
But I’d swear to anyone who’d listen
As I left he said “Goodbye”

This little gargoyle collection can be found peering out at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland. Aren’t they enchanting?

This is North Road Cemetery in Darlington. It’s a beautiful place with a really interesting tower, which I wrote about in a previous writephoto – here.

I love how much the October prompts have been inspiring you all! Apologies I am a little behind in reading them all and the round-ups. Thankfully nothing bad, just busy at work as picked up a few 12 hour shifts, combined with some spooky fun activities with my little guy.

A Woodland Walk – Flash Fiction

She watched the young couple walk through the woods. She could feel their new love tingle in the air like static, fresh and exciting. She followed them, unseen, unheard, as always. Finally, they stopped.

“This is the place.” He stepped back and swept his arms widely to indicate the trees in the forest.

“What?” she asked, confused.

“This is where I shall build our future home. The builders start tomorrow.”

The wood nymph felt her fury rise, and when the lightning struck the woodland, she felt only sorrow for the plants and trees, but she would heal those later.

Couple in the Forest – Image credit; Shahzin Shajid @ Unsplash

For the visually challenged reader, this image shows the scene of a forest. One can see a couple walking in the distance through the hazy fog.
