[...] Miscarriage is one of those feelings that stays inside a person. Even though the body is gone, the memory persists, an innate feeling that one has failed in a responsibility to another human being. Somebody died on my watch. It’s a tough cross to bear sometimes, and if left to fester can cause a multitude of other problems. It needs to be let out, so let it out. Talk. Listen. Remember that tiny pile of cells to somebody else, write stories about it. [...]

Thanks Sam… but I hate having to do stuff :) I prefer writing about doing stuff instead.

Jefferson; Thanks petal! I’m racking my brain for more inspiration, I really am. It seems to have buggered off elsewhere for a while though.

Vicky; Cheers :) It’s all just a bit of nonsense really.

Lee; Hello and welcome! Thanks for leaving a comment, I’m glad you feel the connection, I think it’s important in these days of cynicysm.

Sandi McBride; Thanks for visiting :) So chuffed with the link!

Moannie; Nah, it’s nothing that happened to me thank goodness, just something that appeared in my head as I was writing it. You’re bang on, though, it is an idea for a novel that I’ve been trying to formulate, thought I’d give it a trial run here to see how it went down – success :)) Thanks for commenting.

Gray Wright; What a lovely thing to say, thanks – it makes the frustrating search for inspiration a bit easier. Don’t be jealous though, a warped mind is a strange thing to live with ;)

All I have to say this time is that I wish I could write like you do sometimes. Jealousy will get me nowhere!

OK. Here from David’s POTD and I am a bit bemused. I thought the story was gripping and I love your writing, it was well done, but is it something that happened to you, are you the girl/woman? Is it an idea for a novel?

Whatever it is, or is going to be I’ll be back now that I have found you, ‘cos you are a unique voice.
