National Young Writers’ Month – Day 19

My internet, I’ve decided, is about as consistent as used noodle water. You’d drink it if you absolutely had to stop yourself from suffering from dehydration, but you kind of know that all that starch simply cannot be good for you. Cloudy, starchy noodle water = my internet. It’s working again all of a sudden,…

National Young Writers’ Month – Day 16

I returned home last night after catching up with an ex-coworker for a few drinks to find my internet working. For how long? Well, not long enough. It wasn’t working this morning when I awoke and I’m currently in a study carrel at uni typing this. So here’s an update either way. I went back…

Lacking and Exams

Not sitting down to write for a while really got to me. I mean, knowing I had no internet and knowing I was powerless to actually do anything until the situation was resolved played its part, but I really think I stopped writing because I knew it wasn’t going to be published anywhere for people…

National Young Writers’ Month – Day 5 – Noir and…

National Young Writers’ Month – Day 2 – ZomRomCom

I’m of the opinion now that this was fate intervening. I haven’t seen another living person for at least 80 days. Knowing that Walkers are…

National Young Writers’ Month – Day 1 – Horror Haiku

Howdy, all, Well, here’s my first contribution to the seemingly impossible task I have set myself for this month. I have no doubt that it’s attainable, but it’ll take a lot of dedication and ideas. So, without further ado, here’s my first attempt! Horror Haiku She lit the fire winter’s chill was overcome on the…

Gnocchi, Departures and a Walrus

Final week of uni before SWOTVAC (Situation Without Owning Total Vaccines And Corn) begins. SWOTVAC doesn’t actually stand for what I just wrote, but I believe it’s far more interesting to describe the study period before exams start. I am coming down with a cold at the moment. I did tell my manager the other…
