I see a load of threads floating around here for links to peoples blog sites with some crackin' stories just waiting to be unearthed. If its okay with the mods - does anyone fancy sharing a trail to their works with like minded folks who enjoy writing and reading for a hobby. Might get a good bit of feedback for writing that needs a bit of tweeking ?

Free advice is always a bonus eh !

It makes it easier to find links if they are in one place doncha think ?

Okay , how about this fella

Short story #1

Catch Of The Day… | Fantasy Fiction.

Very entertaining SHEEMIEE. Being a life long fisherman, I am always critical of these type of writings as some are laden with a plethora of fishing faux pas. Yours was not.

Frank reminded me of myself and I often wondered if killing all those fish in the past may catch up with me as well. I too am dedicated to revisiting my spot every year, regardless of life's curve balls, mishaps, births, deaths, ect.

I had great surreal visuals from your nicely descriptive writing but anticipated Franks fate from the get go.

Good Job! Thanks for sharing.

Gotta give it something at the end leif - did it end up sizzling over the bbq ? Served up to the family? Did your dad look over the family dining table and give you a wink ?

What about you own kid - did he catch his first fish with you ? It might be worth tying that in with your first experience to round your story off.

Got any more ?

Thanks Sheemiee. I hear ya. Just trying to test my brain/thought process a little and see if I can build on it. Funny you mentioned the ending. I removed it before posting and it did involve my dad.....good observation. These little stories are basically matter of fact with a little description. Just dipping in a toe or two.

Thanks,
Leif

Easy reading Leif - it's like the monologue at the start of the wonder years from way back
