Fangle and Dink Wait Up for Santa by Jabulani Word Count: 296

I have been brewing an idea of a series of stories about an adventurous hamster...inspired by our own which has managed to escape his cage and go on the rampage regardless of what obstacles we put in his way. Here is my first go at an opener....aimed at 4-7 year olds.....will need good illustration

Letting Go by Jabulani Word Count: 209
4  Comments

I have chosen this as my first piece of work to go public with. Written a few years ago I realise it unfashionably is in rhyme but I hope the rhythm adds some atmosphere rather than merely distracts. It is the tension and stictness of a tightrope versus the swing and flight of the trapeze. Symbols of a personal approach to life.

Not stricly fiction, this piece is more from memory. However, I am hoping it is the start of something more.

The end of everything by Jabulani Word Count: 717
5  Comments

This is the first passage, although not necessarily the start of a book I want to write. It will explore issues to do with identity and belonging and is set around the story of a brother and sister who grow up in different worlds after the brother goes/is sent(?) to Africa as a Fairbridge boy. Later their lives will cross over again. It is inspired by my family's own experiences.

Having read Boo's wonderful warm image of a bed with nightly visitors, I couln't resist trying to express the other side of life with small children.....that comes with exhaustion

The Siren by Jabulani Word Count: 76

Before you all move on to the next exercise....wait for me!! I've finally managed to produce something for the 'Metre Exercise'. I think it will be pretty obvious to everyone where the rythm comes from and maybe some of the sentiment is the same? In fact some of the words are the same too....but don't worry there is a new angle..

Winter 1978, England by Jabulani Word Count: 94
5  Comments

Inspired by other's attempts I thought I would have another go at this exercise; capturing feelings from a time that I don't specially like to think back to when my family first came to England.
