Thanks Matt. I really liked the idea and the execution. The second one felt forced. If I hadn’t selected the ‘double espresso’ format I’d have eased some pressure to find two stories. Anyhoo, good to get the cogs turning. Thanks for reading.
Welcome back, Fand F.. Obviously fresh air and exercise have done you some real good! Just like the boss in your 100-word story, a little change of scene and some personal attention can do wonders! Your 50-word is so complex, it could easily be a 50-pager...
Ah, thank you, Sharron. A treat to be writing. It’s hard not to have dystopian thoughts these days … but we have to dial them up to (1)11 on the scale to keep them fictional!
Ah, thank you, Justin. So pleased to be scratching around with ideas and words. ‘Donor’ came to me in a flash, though the first attempt needed edited into submission. The second one wasn’t such a clear idea. Maybe I’m just back for the 50s!!
Good to see you back. Donor is great.

Great to see you back, Barrie! “Donor” is excellent…it really shines! It also gave me chills. I hope you had a wonderful time on your cycling tour!

The first story seems an uncomfortably possible glimpse into the future.
Eek, dystopian novels always have that hint of possibility. Scary times.
Great to see you back Barrie and already your plume ruffling hot air.. and with two amazing double espressos - so fast!
I think I might book a rejuvenating break if it has such an effect..!
Happy harvesting!
Pedal 1700 kilometres. It’s amazingly rejuvenating! 😉
I must try it..!! Not this week though..🥵
Donor is a powerful story. You did a lot in so few words. I love it.
Really appreciate that, Bill. Thanks so much
