Hello all, I was away sea so I apologize for the delayed post. I really thought that Sea time would be conducive to writing but it doesn’t seem to work out that way. I prefer to be in a dark room, with a hot cup of tea and the sounds of rain at my window or in a crowded coffee shop, fervently people-watching to help me build new characters. Today’s sharing is not my best work but certainly a long way from my worst. Hopefully you enjoy reading it, feel free to let me know what you think in the comments. Thanks for your time, I know there are a lot of demands on it.
