Okay, I have done as much as I want at this stage on the spider thing — three versions, the original description of the dream, a short fictional scribble and the longer more 'proper' story, which I'm still working ot the theme/end of. So I'll leave it for a while.

Regarding the Two People and a Death Worm on Legs, I did some dialogue about food (this is me) and where and how to have dinner in what is basically an empty 'ghost city'. It's not much — I have to restrict my urge to talk about fantasy food in detail — but it seems to be okay. The story doesn't really have a plot, but I think I can still make it work as a gentle vignetty piece without one.

Oh, and I wrote out some more Christmas cards. Amazing how the first ones have a few lines of friendly/familial chat, then they get shorter and shorter as inspiration and enthusiasm for handwriting lags...

I guess I'm the only dinosaur left on this planet who still writes out everything by hand first. Including ungodly long multichapter stories.

My handwriting was always bad, even when I had nothing else ... so I wasn't exactly sorry to leave it behind.

Everyone is starting so early on their Christmas preparations, I feel like such a slug 😒

It sounds like you've been enjoying the writing assignments though.
