Feeling Guilty

It’s been a little while since I last had anything to say, so I’m obviously feeling guilty about that; and as of now I am officially ‘bunking off’ from my writer’s group because… well because I haven’t done any writing but also because it can all get a bit, ummm, frantic.

Now, regular readers (who am I kidding?!) may be reeling in their chairs and exclaiming - “Writer’s group? She’s never mentioned a writer’s group before!” and yes Dear Reader, you are correct. I have not mentioned it before. I have tussled with the thought of telling you all about, but have always refrained for fear of offending the innocent. You see, my particular writer’s group is so full of idiosyncratic people, that in the unlikely event of one of them stumbling across this blog, they would recognise themselves in an instant. However, all I will say is that my writer’s group is currently in the throes of trying to organise a ‘poetry reading’ evening at a local cafe, and all is not well in paradise. No sireee. The lady at the cafe was very enthusiastic at the start, but has now decreed that there is to be no music, no microphones, and no swearing or suggestive language of any kind. Hmmm. Anyone know any good nursery rhymes?

So anyhow, tonight I predict much wringing of hands and wailing about artistic integrity at the group, so I have chosen to hide at home and eat chocolate.
