It's summer holidays. But something tells me I'm going to be spending a lot of time at home crying over edits while doing back-to-back waves of self-isolation.

| Where I'd rather be - Fjaerland booktown Norway July 2018 |
So this month's blog is a few writing prompts for anyone else staycationing in their own deckchair. Take a break from your WIP, or kickstart a piece of flash fiction or a short story.
Use one of the opening lines and write solidly for ten minutes:
She had not expected to be holidaying at home but...
A pair of broken sunglasses lay on the deckchair.
A solitary blue suitcase circled the luggage carousel.
Visual prompts if you prefer
Now repeat in a different genre and see where the same prompt takes you. So if you never normally write horror or thriller (my personal favourite), or romance, indulge in a little genre swapping.
Happy Holidays!

My name is Lilian N. This is a very joyful day of my life because of the help Dr.saguru has rendered to me by helping me get my ex-husband back with his magic and love spell. I was married for 6 years and it was so terrible because my husband was really cheating on me and was seeking a divorce but when I came across Dr.saguru email on the internet on how he has helped so many people to get their ex back and help to fix the relationship. and make people be happy in their relationship. I explained my situation to him and then seek his help from him but to my surprise, he told me that he will help me with my case and here I am now celebrating because my Husband has changed totally for good. He always wants to be by me and can’t do anything without my present. I am really enjoying my marriage, what a great celebration. I will keep on testing on the internet because Dr.saguru is truly a real spell caster.
