I’ve just posted a story I wrote some years ago at the Baha’i Arts Academy. The writing course that year was one of the most stimulating I have attended, wonderfully tutored by Roger Prentice.
I can only described what happened as a release. Something was penned up inside, and it came out in a poem (Clift Hills, Shetland) and a story – Clift Hills Crofts. This may not seem to be hugely productive, but Roger’s tutoring tapped into memories and experiences that infused themselves into the poem and story.

Hmmm. you have alot of complex links scattered here and there.
Well, about writing, I am thinking of dishing out the money for a second semester of online short-story writing through a private company that is solely devoted to teaching various kinds and levels of writing. I took the first sememster (10 weeks, not quite a semester, but anyhow…) Jan-march 2006. and it was all I could do to keep pace. I devoted 100% of my effort to the cause…..No, I’m not some undiscovered Jack….Hemmingway
I don’t think I’m any kind of undiscovered Hemmingway or Jack London or Dickens. One can really excel only if one is doing this stuff day in day out – rather like practising a musical instrument.
I greatly enjoyed Cliff Hills, Shetland. You have a remarkable voice. Thank you.

Many thanks for your kind comment.
