Wednesday weigh-in: Valentine's D(el)ay

Hey friends,

Happy belated Valentine's Day! 💝 Oh, and pancake day the day before, too. 🥞 That's a lot of sugar for our ladies in two consecutive days!

And for the rest of us, too, it seems. For in Googling possible inspiration for Abby's Valentine's Day pic, I discovered that hospital admissions f...

Reminds me of that time the window cleaner arrived while I was downstairs. Standard mildly awkward smile and wave exchanged, then as he extends his ladder I realise I've left a pic rendering on the PC in full view of upstairs window. Bolted upstairs and managed to ...

💝 Choose your valentine

Hey all! Want to do a Valentine's Day pic, but drawing a bit of a blank, so thought I'd open it up and see if anyone has a preference for a character to feature.

NB I've left Holly and Amelia out as they've featured in the last couple of years' Valentine's pics. Sorry if that disappoints!

Feel fre...

Wednesday weigh-in: Amelia & Irene in colour

Hey friends,

Hope we've all had a great week. A little late with this, but still calling it the Wednesday weigh-in because, well, alliteration. And maybe it is still Wednesday for one or two of you.

The reason for the delay is that I caught up with an old uni friend yesterday evening. (Gosh, where have the years g...

🔥 Debi's hot & heavy hotel liaison [contains nudity!]

Looks like the ladies have taken matters into their own hands... Matters being Debi's extremely full belly. That greedy girl clearly didn't stop at the hors d'oeuvres!

But where has Cyrus gotten to?

🔥🔥🔥

Wednesday weigh-in

Hey all! 👋

Hope everyone's good. For me, the last two weeks of January are the storm before the calm: work churns like Amelia's potbelly after an ill-advised fourth helping of crème brûlée, but then things begin to settle in February and usually continue fair to middling through March - which...

A sucker for the sachertorte

Inspired by the trailers for the new Mean Girls film, here is Amelia doing her best Regina George imitation.

This is a teaser for a scene from my upcoming Amelia story set during her time in university. The "Irene" Amelia is berating will feature heavily, and was inspired by a member of the canteen staff (back then we c...

Weekly weigh-in

Hey all,

Hope everyone's good.

First,  here's the link to my entry for this week's writing prompt.

Bit of a standalone story this week. However, many of my entries will be snippet...

Writing prompt update

Hey all,

Had a minor work emergency at the end of last week which meant I had to travel and work over the weekend. So the week 2 writing prompt (#SPECTACLE) will be delayed slightly. I'll definitely have it posted this week. I may incorporate it with the prompt for this week, or may do something separate for that, depen...

🎄 The Festively Bellied Investment Banker (pic and story)

Hey all.

A few days later than promised, but hopefully it's worth the wait!

For context, the following scene is set a year after A Cranky Kari Christmas and a year before 2024-01-11 18:15:33 +0000 UTC View Post

Weekly writing prompts

Hey all!

Just a quick side-note to say that I've decided to jump in on the awesome ExtraBaggageClaim's weekly one-word writing prompts this year. For me, it's an attempt to fight perfectionism (aka fear of posting) and hopefully stimula...

Hors d'oeuvres and overt teasing

Happy new year everyone! 🎉

I was hit by a bit of slightly inspiration for the Christmas Kari vignette I'm working on, so it'll be delayed until the weekend - but it will be longer than planned and come with a pic.

To tide you over until then, here's the second picture in the collaboration I'm working on with 2024-01-04 11:33:22 +0000 UTC View Post

🥧A Cranky Kari Christmas (and a Happy New Year!)

Oh dear... it looks like Michelle's post about lazy businesswomen and their mince pie habits hit Kari's Instagram feed at a rather inopportune moment!

Hope you like the pic. I have written a little scenario to go with it, but haven't quite had time to format and tidy it up amidst all the family and friends stuff that co...

Merry Christmas! ...and a little🎁from me

Hey all,

Just wanted to drop a quick message to say thank you so much for your support this year. I hope you all have a wonderful festive season and that Santa brings you everything you want. 🎅🎁

An unexpected (but very welcome!) visitor this year means I haven't been able to finish off my second Christmas pi...

The lady wot lunched a little too much - Chapter 10.5 preview

James didn't need to be asked twice. Rolling out from beneath the table like a commando, he scrabbled to his feet, tugging at his jacket and glancing around nervously.

He needn't have worried. All eyes in the hall were on Abby.

And for once, not for a reason she wanted.

'Bleurch!' the dazed diva s...

Festive tax evasion

The first of two Christmas pics this year - and a little teaser for an upcoming chapter of Kari's Life in Lockdown.

While Covid restrictions are giving investment banker Kari a bad case of financial indigestion, Michelle's social media business is thriving, with higher profits than ever.

Unfortunately, as any acco...

Update

Hey all,

First off, apologies for being so quiet recently. I've been full of man flu these last couple of weeks. Added to which my boiler broke down and it's been a bit of a nightmare trying to find someone to fix it this time of year. Fortunately the weather hasn't been as cold as it could have been.

Cyrus and Debi

Hey all,

Here's the first in a sequence of 3 pics (or possibly more) in collaboration with my friend Samster, set in his incredibly immersive Corporate Worlds universe.

Here we have Cyrus Benson and his confidant and lover Debi arriving ...
