What does it for you?
The next theme for All Things Girl is, “Spice of Life”. This is an exciting theme because it means you can write about anything that makes life a little more exciting; the types of things that just lift you out of the normal “everyday”. Turn them into a story or poem and share your ideas.
I was thinking of all the special and exciting things in my life and it occurred to me that everyone would be passionate about different things. Now one of the things I love to do is write (which may come as no surprise). It doesn’t matter what it is: articles for newspapers, poems (my passion) short stories, novels. I just really enjoy the time spent writing. It takes you away from real life - drains and the like! A friend of mine has a passion for words. She knows a phenomenal amount of obscure and seldom used words, which she drops into every conversation. Then there are people who have to climb mountains or swim the English Channel, both activities far too adventurous for me. Some people are passionate about food (ok I’ll own up to that one) and others are fashion fanatics. Royal Ascot has been on the television all week and you can forget the racing. There were ladies walking around with bushes and aerials on their heads.
The new edition of All Things Girl is not far away and there are some really good pieces to look forward to but the writings section are still taking submissions, so if you have an urge to share your writing, why not take a look at the submissions page. Send in your stories and poems. We love reading them!
