Taking a break


Review This - Taking a Break

This writing prompt was set up to give myself - and any others who wandered past - an opportunity to write about different experiences as practice for reviewing sites, magazines and newspapers.

I had 'put it out there' that I would be be able to publish some of my articles this year and have been really blessed to find not one but two weekly columns to write for.

I will start putting prompts up again for this site when the dust settles...

in the mean time - check out where I am writing - please pop by and make some comments
