WTBH Wednesday: The Slightly Late Edition

Hallo and welcome to yet another edition of WTBH Wednesday!

I don’t have anything particularly interesting for you today, apart from the challenge that I have set for March. We’ll get to that in a minute, first I have a few links for you!

First up, I’ve mentioned the Post Punk Book Club before – check it out on Tumblr! And we also have a Twitter account now – find us under @PostPunkBC

Secondly, the second edition of Rebecca Clare Smith’s #SatSunTails will be up on Saturday! Make sure to take part in it – it’s going to be great fun!

And last, but by no means least, check out my personal Tumblr ‘Toxic Musings’ for more of my writings, musings and the like!

Now – onto the bit you’re all eagerly awaiting!

Edit: I had a bit of a think (and some helpful feedback) on the prompts for this challenge, and I’ve decided to change them! Hope you like the new ones :)

The challenge day will be Tuesday – because Rebecca has hijacked Saturday. But it’s her birthday, and I bought her chocolate, and I love her – so it’s all good. Sorry, a little off track there… back to the challenge!

March Madness! 

(I say madness because… well, it is.)

You know the rules as well as I do – only this time you only get 200 words!

    • Belial: vessels of iniquity and inventors of evil things
    • Asmodeus: vile revenges
    • Astaroth: inquisitors and accusers
    • Mammon: tempters and ensnarer
These are four of the seven ‘Princes of Hell’ – click on the links for more information. Use the demons, or use their ‘actions’ as you will. Enjoy!

So sign up, and get to writing something good with my rather vague prompts!

WTBH Wednesday: Edition 2

Hallo again my lovelies. It’s that time of the week again! I have a couple of things I want to discuss with you.

First up is an article my (ridiculously awesome) lady friend @LinkyGray showed me yesterday.

“Is it acceptable to call someone ‘babe’?”

I found this article a little bit hilarious – but then I’m Scottish, and everyone is ‘my lovely’ or ‘hen’ or ‘pet’. It’s just the way it is. I don’t mind these terms, they’re affectionate not insulting. Unless I feel it’s being used in a derogatory fashion (which it rarely is) I have no reason to complain.

So tell me, how do you feel about it?

Second up is a little thing I posted on my Tumblr today. (Let’s use a little copy & paste magic here).

It’s time to come clean. 
I swear I’ll tell the truth this time.
I mean it.
I will.

No, I’m serious – there’s something I need to get off my chest. It’s about me, and what I do and what I think I can do.

I write. A lot. I like to experiment, I like to try new things – but there’s things I’m not very good at writing. There are some things that I really shouldn’t have written. 

(But that’s not the truth part.)

I adore when someone comes along and says to me ‘Hey, this is all right – but you could make it better. Mind if I show you how?’

That, right there makes me immensely happy. It does. 

Point of post:

If I’ve written something, and you think that it’s not good enough or there’s something ridiculous about it. Send me an ask! Tell me what you think I could do to make it better. I’m not going to get all offended and miserable, and start mouthing off about you/at you. I’m going to say thank you, and mean it. So go ahead, critique that shit.

So, yeah, that. If there’s something you think I should know – drop me a line:

timonysouler@gmail.com

And that’s it for WBTH Wednesday!

Writing, writing, and a little more…

Hallo my lovelies!

How are we all? Good, I hope! I’m doing rather well.

Would you like an update? Of course you would! (And you’re getting it, even if you don’t!)

If you’re on Twitter, and following me, you’ve probably seen the #WIP500 tag floating around in a lot of my tweets. It’s going good! I haven’t written as much on the WIP as I would like, but honestly I haven’t been in the right frame of mind for it. I have however been writing lots of poetry and mini fiction (which I owe you one, I will do a double post on Friday!) over on my Tumblr. Feel free to go and check it out, and leave a comment using the Disqus form.

It was also the second day of the Creative Writing at The Art Stop, which was great fun. It’s always nice to get out of your own headspace for a while, and hear what others are up to. Wrote a couple of fun pieces there, which are now on my Tumblr!

And last, but by no means least, my February blog challenge – #DearValentine – starts on Saturday! You can sign up here, if you haven’t already.

So tell me about you, how are you getting on with your writing?
