( A little bit of green )

So this week, we read Dutchman by Imamu Amiri Baraka [LeRoi Jones at the time he wrote the play in 1964]. It's an interesting play, and I would argue, an even more interesting movie. There's a whole lot going on in terms of race, and a lot of what I wrote down in my journal talks about that, but apparently I was struck by the issues of attraction and sexual predation too.

we had to write a creative response to Waiting for Godot last week. It was also to pertain to our chosen topics. Mine is (roughly) the ways information and communication technologies affect human interaction.

( The connection may appear tenuous )
ETA: um, general rated. also, short.

I was given an assignment to write "a paragraph of description, as good as [I] can make it." I'm not sure how good it is, but it lent itself to becoming a flash-fic and so I share it. 300 words, general rated.

and yeah, the cut text is shamelessly missappropriated

With moving and everything that happened around that, I've not been able to write in what feels like months, even though it's more accurately weeks. I set myself an assignment out of one of my writing books. This is the result. Beta'd by skyblue_reverie but fiddled with a fair amount since, so any errors are all mine.

Coming to Grandma. 1079 words. General rated.

Part five of Caught is here. A bit shorter than previous parts, but I'm moving two weeks today and I don't think I'm going to have time to work on it more between now and then so I thought I would post what I've done. Thank you, as always to tigertrapped for beta and help with Gideon.

Adult rated. ~2100 words. Featuring Julian, Max, Adam and Gideon.

( Caught V )

Before I say anything else, my eternal thanks to tigertrapped, who offered to help when I said I was having plotting problems, and proceeded to discuss and listen to me until I knew what I needed to know. Thank you also for your generous and thorough beta, darling.

Caught starts here with links onwards. Part 2 is here, and part 3 is here. It is an AU of tigertrapped's Tiger Trap, all the chapters of which can be found here. It follows on from her rather delicious Break.

This part is adult rated for Adam/Max and is ~4,300 words.

( Caught IV )

I've been longing for a Rupert plot bunny to pay me some attention for ages, and thanks to tigertrapped's sexyhot pron, Ship Street, to which this is a sequel, one hopped up and asked to play. Thanks go to her also for beta. adult rated, 1,300 words.

Summary: I don't kiss and tell

I don't know if it was Grey's Anatomy last week, or what, but I got this idea in my head to write a story about Prom night. 2,500 words, teen rated for one use of language.

( James Montgomery Davenport has been my best friend since the third grade )

Thanks to karaokegal, my most exacting critic, for beta, and to tigertrapped who knows the perfect prom metaphor when she sees it.

I've been borrowing the flash challenges from Write Words again. The theme of Laundrette with the words black and white. 300 words.
