What’s this? Am I really posting a short story on my blog, over a year after I last wrote a piece of fiction. Why, yes I am!
Hi lovely readers, you may have noticed that I have not been very active on the blog other the last 12 months. I have been busy raising three tiny humans and then coronavirus and lockdown happened and I haven’t really been in the best head space for writing. I have missed it though. I have been doing a bit of old school pen and paper journal writing but I have found it hard to craft blog posts lately.
To try and get into the swing of things and to encourage myself to start writing more regularly, I have decided to start posting regular pieces of fiction here on my blog again . Previously these stories focused on mums and mental health, (you can find those short stories here) I might still write about those kinds of issues but I also want to explore writing about topics other than motherhood too.
So, my first short story to relaunch my fiction series is called We aim to please.
Here’s a quick synopsis –
Emily is a people pleaser. She always has been and worries she always will be.
One day at work, Emily decides enough is enough and vows she is going to stand up to her boss and finally speak her mind.
Will Emily be able to break the habit of a lifetime? Or will her opinions and views remain trapped on the inside.
I hope you enjoy We aim to please. I am (obviously) not a professional writer and have only ever dabbled in fiction writing so I would really appreciate your honest feedback.
Happy reading! View Post
