Dear Tanya, the last time I stirred my quill and scratched some words in response to one of your prompts, you kindly accommodated my absence from Substack by taking them in by email and cutting them into the archive. But here I am now, in the right place at the right time ... a prompt to write about reading. Perfect. Quick question, sorry, do I just submit the words as a comment here. I probably haven't been paying attention! Happy Friday, Barrie

I was hoping this prompt would tempt you! Yes, just paste into a reply on this thread & I will then move it into the story archive! X

Perfect. The sun is shining so I can’t justify sitting inside until I’ve done some potager chores and sorted some logs for the pile. But really looking forward to writing something this evening. Baked Camembert, crusty loaf, red wine ... and writing. My perfect evening. Bx

Barrie. Wow! So much wild and wondeful energy in your piece. Absolute pleasure to add it to the story archive. I've got a move on with creating this month's webpage so you can include your piece in your newsletter. I'm going to add the other stories that have already come in now, and so by the time it goes out later there will be several there. On your name in the pullquote, I've linked through to your new substack...

That's so lovely to hear, Tan ... it's always amazing to see our words published like that. What a treat. Thank you. Bx

(PS ... can I be super cheeky ... if you can take the 'p' out of my name, that would be fab (I'm a Scottish 'Thomson'))

Whoops! Corrected both on the page and in the link...
