Here is my latest entry into the lovely Lillie’s Five Sentence Fiction, where she has provided this intriguing photo from this blog enigmatically called ‘Loving’ for us as this week’s inspiration. Please do visit here to read, read, read some more! No two pieces will be the same…
Again, this post will form part of my weekly theme, linking together the pictorial inspiration from Lillie’s blog, VisDare and Magpie Tales. There is no particular order this week, so read them however you like!
