Exceptional A short story about me being a writer All writers lunch together, not me. by robina1978 Writing writing prompt entry

At the moment I write many stories, as I am higher up with stories than with poems. I hope to make the top ten, maybe. This is mainly due to all the updates about my husband. Will you all keep your fingers crossed? I might even make a book out of all these stories. That would be my first book. Mind you, I tried one years ago, but it failed on FanStory. I was never good at school in writing. My first or first two lines are good. Then as I need more lines, it gets rubbish. So never ever good scores. My poems (I never read poetry before I joined this site) I was taught by Brooke. She was an excellent teacher. I lost her now, and am literary lost without her guidance. I got to love poetry under her tuition, now it is just a must. Writing poetry and short stories is something I like, but during this lunch I found I was the worst one of the lot. No surprise for me. To you? I don't think so, not really. The only thing I used to be good at, is talking. Shrink was my profession. I don't gossip as one poem tells you. Maybe very occasionally. Please all agree with me, so I can laugh my head off. Catch a head, and you'll win this prompt/contest. I think all other writers enjoyed their lunch, I didn't. Just did not taste well enough. Writers are choosy eaters. Writing Prompt Write a story or essay with the topic of "writing". Can be instructional or a character in the story can be a writer. Creative approaches welcomed. Author Notes Many thanks to Liilia for the artwork.
