In response to Di’s daily Prompt:
https://wp.me/p3RSgb-w6v
A writer is a strange creature.
Half memory,
half imagination,
occasionally powered by coffee and tea.
There are moments of being wistful —
looking back at words once written,
wondering who that version of you was,
and whether she knew what she was doing.
(She didn’t. She was guessing. We all are.)
But then comes the wit —
that quick little spark
that turns longing into laughter,
mistakes into metaphors,
and ordinary days into stories.
A writer doesn’t escape wistfulness.
She edits it.
She reshapes it.
She gives it rhythm.
And if she’s lucky,
she finds humour hiding in the margins 😄
