Sunday Photo Fiction – December 27th 2015

The final Sunday Photo Fiction of 2015. Thank you to each and every one of you that has participated in one way or another this year, old and new. In particular, I want to thank Joe Owens who took over when I went away from blogging for a while. He kept the show running for me, and did a great job.

I hope you all had a good Christmas and aren’t too stuffed from the food. I hope that 2016 is a fantastic year for you, and I look forward to reading more and more stories. Take care and thank you.

As the final Sunday Photo Fiction, I thought I would choose a photo of what used to be a bamboo plant vase. If you want to take part in Sunday Photo Fiction, then just write a story or poem, with around 200 words in it. It can be less than 200, or more. If you are going to go over, please don’t take it too far over.

The story doesn’t have to revolve around the subject. There have been some stories in the past where the subject of the photo was the briefest of mentions in the tale.

I look forward to reading your contributions, when you have finished, please add your link to the InLinkz page so others can read them as well.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Sunday Photo Fiction – December 20th 2015

Sunday Photo Fiction is a weekly writing challenge where a photo is used as a prompt for a piece of fiction using around 200 words. The piece doesn’t have to centre around exactly what the photo is, it can be just used as a basis for a story. As it is less than a week until Christmas, I thought I would use a Christmas themed photo to see what you can come up with. This old man always used to dress up as Santa, every year you could guarantee he would be in several places around the village. In the summer months, he would walk past a young child who was being naughty and say something along the lines of “I take it you know who I am? Well, I’m watching you, and I have you on my list”. He wasn’t at all creepy with it. He was great with the characterisation he always portrayed. I moved out of that village nine years ago. I can only hope he is still doing well. The child is not a random child she is my (now 17 year old) daughter.

Sunday Photo Fiction – December 13th 2015

Sunday Photo Fiction is a weekly writing challenge where a photo is used as a prompt for a piece of fiction using around 200 words. The piece doesn’t have to centre around exactly what the photo is, it can be just used as a basis for a story. I have absolutely no idea why I took this photo. There again, in 2013 I was taking photos of anything and everything. The green man is a common signal. It is portrayed as different things in different countries. In the US, rather than the Red Man / Green Man, there is Don’t Walk / Walk for crossing roads.

Sunday Photo Fiction – December 6th 2015

Sunday Photo Fiction is a weekly writing challenge where a photo is used as a prompt for a piece of fiction using around 200 words. The piece doesn’t have to centre around exactly what the photo is, it can be just used as a basis for a story. I love my sister’s ponies. Especially one that is full of his own character. He just seems to laugh at things. The amount of photos where he is laughing is unreal.
