    HE WAITED SILENTLY

    The way was clear, the route less so. They could all picture it. The blue skies, the light glinting on the water, the sand between their toes. And they had been told this was the way, so they followed. Many were soon lost, or sacrificed, or dismissed. The leaders had no time for weakness or…

  • ROLL YOUR SLEEVE UP

    Is there an element of risk involved? Only if you have an allergy to any of the ingredients. Side effects? Shivers, headache, tiredness. Take some paracetamol. And that’s it? That’s it. You’re sure there’s not a Bill Gates microchip in there? I’m sure. Roll your sleeve up. Written for the Weekend Writing Prompt, hosted by SammiScribbles.…
