As you may well have seen, I have been writing some poetry and posting it on LG. The following poem was inspired by a visit to the post office, when we went to send off some lamps to another member on here: There was a very long queue But what on earth could we do When there’s not enough staff They must be having a laugh It’s a right old mess At the Post OfficeNow it's over to others to add their creative writings ![Smiley :)](/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Sammi is amazingly creative, she's not only writing poetry, but has more than one book on the go plus a daily journal. Not to mention learning the mandolin and programming in Python (although not all at the same time ![Cheesy :D](/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) ) I get worn out just looking at her sometimes ![Grin ;D](/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

You seem to have visited the Post office in our town...?

The latest bit of writing that I'm undertaking is a science fiction novel. I have written nearly 10,000 words since I started at the beginning of the month. ![Cool 8)](/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Ria mentioned that I was writing the book to an author, whose mailing list she's on. He replied, wishing me good luck. ![Smiley :)](/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) In her next email, she asked him if he would like to read the first chapter. He replied that he would... ![Grin ;D](/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I sent it off, and awaited a reply, which came through a couple of days later. He enjoyed it.! He said that it was fun, lively and inventive, and to carry on going as he sees potential in the story line. ![Grin ;D](/Smileys/default/grin.gif) To get encouragement like this from a professional author is more than I could ever hope for. ![Tears of joy :'-)](/Smileys/default/crazy.gif)

I've tried writing stories and TV program scripts, but I run out of ideas before I can finish the storyline. ![Tongue :P](/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

The ideas are still coming with me, this book is nearing 40,000 words, and another one that's just for Ria and myself is knocking on the door of 200,000.! ![Grin ;D](/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The journal that I've been keeping since the 11th of January 2016 is over a million words long now.! ![Mind Blown :poof:](/Smileys/default/Mind_Blown.gif)

Last week we changed our ISP, so here's another poem:
We have a new t’interweb provider The make of router was the decider With Sky everything was tied down Which did make us really frown Zen has supplied us with a Fritz!box Now that’s a router that rocks

I've carried on with the writing, which is one if the reasons I haven't been very active in the site. Adventures of a Space Munky is now at nearly 55,000 words with four quite long chapters completed and a fifth under way. I'm just waiting for new ideas to come to me.

Lovely works mandolin girl! I've never had the juice for poetry, though I do enjoy reading it. I have several "manuscripts" though for future novels.
