I went to my Saturday morning writing workshop today, and our theme this week was the London Underground. This is what I wrote.

( why am I posting this here, you ask? I do not know! )

That circle line business is terribly romantic, got me right in the feels!

I know a former Station Manager at King’s Cross. I met him working on a sailing ship. He’s a captain now, on another ship. I’ve been promoted.

Nearly eleven years ago I was on holiday on the ship where I later met him. He was at work, on a day when everything was suddenly not fun any more. He took leave after that, and a temporary contract somewhere sunny. I remember the date because of the Londoners on the ship with me. Hearing their concern for their friends was - and remains - the closest I’d been to terrorist activity.
Hello! That's apparently 100 words of making your writing theme all about me, sorry. The reasoning behind it goes something like 'you go to a writing workshop? ooh. that sounds both nicely sociable, and terrifying, because words. congratulations on sociability, I fail at it a lot. I wonder if I could do words?' And these are some of the words that came out ( ... )
