| My old partner in crime |
This week Jenny has given us Writing.
Normally Mimi is also participating.
I started to write some time before school,
Writing poems of sons and stories of cats.
A decrepit typewriter, as ancient as time
Was my friend and my partner in crime.
I once had as homework a story to write
Of ghosts and of scaries today
I wrote of a troll and a church and a hill
Oh, the tale ... I remember it still.
As an end to the story I wrote - as was true
If I didn't have no books at all
I would write me some books, at a terrible speed.
Just for to have something to read.
Next week, Diane had said, we'll talk of Things that Scare Us now
I am grateful that I do have books to read - because I don't have the talent to create them.
SvarSletWriters are my heroes - and you are one of them.
Thank you. There's a gap of around 40 years between that sentence and me doing it.
SletAh, i am so glad you became a writer!
SvarSletThank you, I'm only a fledgling writer, but I sure hope to publish my Susan-book.
SletI hope you do too. I hope it a lot.
SletI'm happy you write because I love to read!
SvarSletWe had an old typewriter like that when I was growing up - how I loved it! But it would probably feel strange and difficult to use now, after having experienced the ease of keyboards.
I wish I still had it. It was a good friens. But yes, a computer is more user friendly :)
SletBrilliant!
SvarSletAnd I hope you keep writing so I'LL have something to read!
