Words

I don't just draw stickmen. Sometimes I write words. Some of them are very long. But most are short.

I collected my wordier pieces under this page. It makes them easier to find, or avoid.

Sometimes they are funny. Other times informative. There's no way of telling. Sometimes I don't even know.

Individual Pieces

I enjoy writing, especially humour pieces. But they have no relevance in a commercial world. No place for advertising and without that, no purpose either.

However. Having written the thing, and often being quite happy with it, they can find a home here.

500 Words - a super piece of free-writing fun, exactly 500 words long.

Interview With a Publisher - an unfinished set of daily diary entries from the life of an amateur writer.

Winnie the Pooh Short Story - 2,000 words or so in an engaging tale for fans.

Two Large Collections

These links are to groups of similar content.

Sayings - a collection of popular proverbs, idioms, and well, sayings.

Work - working life articles. Sounds dry don't it? It is dry in places. Funny in others.

Thanks for Looking

Not that looking is much use to me. It's reading. That's the thing. The Holy Grail for writers.

That and a prize or something shallow and artificial, like money.

Hey ho. Thanks anyway.
