The prompt is November. Thanks to the calendar, and the early morning wake up call to watch the sunrise the other morning, for this prompt. Is the title cheesy? Yes! Did it make me laugh? Yes! Am I rubbish at coming up with titles? Yes! I can't be good at everything πŸ˜‰πŸŒ„πŸ’« #writingcommunity #poem

This may be based on a true story πŸ˜‰

My feed is full of white dresses and shiny shoes.
Whilst I sit on my sofa in pants that look like pjs. And I've just devoured a mammoth slice of lemon meringue pie. The remains adorn my off-white t-shirt.

My notes app is full of ideas; the start of poems, shopping lists I forgot to delete and silly musings such as this:

When I die, I will still need my Spotify subscription.

I normally write and post a poem on the anniversary of my dad's death. This year, it's 20 years. I was 19, so he's been gone longer than he was in my life. It's such a weird feeling that I still can't articulate, so here is my journal entry from that day. #writerscommunity #journalentry #amwriting ✨️

I'm such a basic b***h, but spring is one of my favourite times of year. Especially when there is still a chill in the air, and I'm not sweating my t**t's off 😍 #manchester #spring #sunset #cityscape

Grief looks different day to day, and on particular days, it's like being surrounded by clouds with no way through...

Something a little different on this Sunday evening. Written the other day on the tram on the way to work. Make of that what you will. Female writers who write creepy stories about women who don't fit society's mould are forever an inspiration. πŸ§™πŸ»β€β™€οΈβœ¨οΈπŸ²πŸ”₯πŸ‘¨πŸš‹ #writerscommunity #womenwhowrite #amwriting
