Oceansize: Everyone Into Position Draft
I can’t say much about this draft, but it was originally written out for something and that something didn’t materialise, in part because for the first attempt I realised I didn’t have enough time to put forward something that actually … Continue reading

Little Piece of Cloth
I was trying to do a scramble of writing two thousand words in under twenty minutes and this came from it. I was slowing down a bit, then picked back up, but (even though this is an absolute mess), once … Continue reading
Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1493: Couple of Days

Uncertainty Ahead
Very roughly six months ago I started a new job, and a couple of days later I was with my partner seeing The Dandy Warhols. I was there to photograph, and we saw them and left early because it was … Continue reading
Regurgitator: INVADER
This is another one that took too long. I sort of took my time with it, sort of didn’t. It just mostly happened, if that makes sense. The editing process was easy, though I got to a point where I … Continue reading
