@cbcreative @EKLeeWriter There was a turning in the air, a whisper of spring warmth, and with it a hint of lilac and woodland secrets that made Amy quicken her step. She pressed on, ignoring the butterflies turning somersaults in her stomach, it was time to free herself from him and take flight.#cbcwrite
@cbcreative It was Elsie’s 83rd birthday and she felt all of a flutter. Excitement or hypertension, she couldn’t quite tell. Last year Tom, the nice man from the floor above, asked to marry her. She said she’d think about it. This year he wanted to spend the night. She had agreed. #CBCWrite
@cbcreative Sandalwood cologne, new oil paints and brushes, all wrapped up in black ribbon. I bring them to you, then lie down by your grave, the dry grass bristling at my skin as I think of better times.
A birthday, though not at all happy.

@cbcreative @annafbailey The plan was simple. Invite her Ex to the lone croft in the shadow of the ice-clad crag. Plenty of places to kill him there. A sputtering breath in the spitting brook. His skull crushed or was it a fall? Not a soul would know. We never saw the child lurking in the mist. #CBCWrite
@cbcreative @CBGBooks @lucycmorris The last chime echoes across the starry sky. Our future condemned to silence once again. But then Saffy softly whispers in my ear. We won. You kept our secret for a year. You can tell everyone now. I wink at the Voice Thief, grab Saffy’s hand and run back down the hill. #CBCWrite
@cbcreative @veehayden @CBGBooks Yet there remains a twinkle in Saffy’s eyes brighter than any star above. A beacon of hope on this ruinous hill. She makes our move. Their King falls. Then she whispers her reply to our secret that has been trapped in silence for this long year. Yes, I will marry you. #CBCWrite
@cbcreative @WriterPolly #cbcwrite My eyes bore into his as we hurriedly exited our local. Legs shaking, sweaty hands entwined. We turned the corner as I heard a familiar voice.
'What are you doing here.' Hands dropped as we took large steps apart.
'Planning your birthday bro, ' he said as I hid my face.
@cbcreative @thestephmerritt Newgate, June 1837
I fear the new Queen shall show no clemency on this fine day. I shiver alone in my fetid cell, too weak to rise and witness the glorious dawn. Soon the air will throb with flies and a feral lust of those who seek pleasure in my demise. Goodbye my son.#CBCWrite
@cbcreative @cpooleywriter I found it on the floor beneath the airport bar. A tiny passport photo of an unknown man. Slipped it into my pocket. Forgot about it. Until he appeared in my dreams six weeks later.
Asking why I’d murdered him. #CBCWrite
@cbcreative @Mrssmithmunday There’s something in his stare. He wants me to see him. As if his life depends on it. The woman moves around him, wiping his mouth after tea, brushing his hair, but he stares through all that. Calling over with those eyes, don’t turn your back. Please notice me. #cbcwrite
@cbcreative @DavidNWriter I’m glad we kept his little umbrella.’ She looks up at him, with a half smile. He sighs, looking straight ahead.
‘He would have loved the snow.’ She rests her head on his shoulder. He coughs.
‘We can do Christmas differently this year.’
‘I don’t want a tree,’ he says.

@cbcreative @CazziF She was just standing there. The trouble was, now so was he. She listened to the sound of children kicking a ball against the dented garages that backed onto their home. The metallic thud making her palms sweat. He stepped forwards and closed the curtains. #cbcwrite
@cbcreative @kate_hamer Engine off. They both looked straight ahead.
“I can’t go back. Please don’t make me!”
“It’ll be fine once you see your friends,” lied mum. Who wasn’t crying.
Or remembering.
Because ‘children are very flexible’.
Eye contact at last.
“What friends?”

Ooooooh, so much good advice in this piece too, from @_AngelaChadwick, on editing your novel. Keeping this on my desktop for regular check-ins. https://t.co/WrwkpBy370 #cbcwrite @cbcreative #amwriting

@KateGalley1 @NeemaMShah Me too! I remember your summation of the story during the original #cbcwrite and was blown away! Sounds fantastic, Neema.
@cbcreative @laurajm8 Scarlet heads tumble. Snip, snip. A rain of petals cascade past this white dress and onto my earth. Such a fragrant bouquet released by the soles of my scarred feet. With each cut I am cleansed. The heady oil, balm for my anger. I am once more, the Madonna of East Sheen.#CBCWrite
@GrindstoneLit @JonnyGeller Something @CurtisBrown started or rather @cbcreative is the #CBCWrite. This has brought writers together in a supportive & friendly online community. August #task today. Looking forward to it.
