Words for Wednesday











This meme was started by Delores a long time ago.  Words for Wednesday is now provided by a number of people and has become a movable feast. 

Essentially the aim is to encourage us to write.  Each week we are given a choice of prompts: which can be words, phrases, music or an image.   What we do with those prompts is up to us:  a short story, prose, a song, a poem, or treating them with ignore...  We can use some or all of the prompts.

Some of us put our creation in comments on the post, and others post on their own blog.  I would really like it if as many people as possible joined into this fun meme, which includes cheering on the other participants.  If you are posting on your own blog - let me know so that I, and other participants, can come along and applaud.

The prompts will be here this month but are provided by Margaret Adamson, and her friend Sue Fulcher.  They  will also include photographs
.

This week's prompts are two very evocative photographs taken by Bill Dodds.





Have fun.

This week's prompts are phrases (ones I have certainly heard):




Let the cat out of the bag



And/or



Best thing since sliced bread


Have fun.  I will be slow to respond to comments for the next few days but will read your work with very real pleasure.  And thank you for all your good wishes.  My eye is still troublesome, but my friend arrives shortly and I am hoping (and expect) to have a wonderful time.
