Another story of mine has been posted at bookscover2cover; called Needles & Tears, it can be read by clicking on the link. This particular scene was written in response to a prompt in which Jen of Blog It Or Lose It asked us to write a haiku with a ‘film noir’ feel to it.
To finish, here’s Elvis Costello –
Very glad you blogged the announcement! Such a remarkable piece of writing- VERY gritty and VERY noir! And with a great musical accompaniment here —!
Well, the song lyric is pure film noir, so it really had to appear here 🙂
And thanks to you for the way out, decidedly non-classical idea of blending those elements into haiku in the first place 😉
Very welcome! Always glad to toe the line – then wave at everyone around me, yelling, “c’mon! I double dog dare ya!” 😉
Ah yes, when I was little that was called ‘being a bad influence’ 😛
But, hey, it can be positive, too, right?
Those “bad influences” can change the world, given the chance 🙂
Very welcome! Always glad to toe the line – then wave at everyone around me, yelling, “c’mon! I double dog dare ya!” ;).
