Inspired by an evocative Sonia Hartnett piece, which was published in the Sunday Life magazine recently, I thought A Long Drive would be a great theme for Words and Pictures this week. Do with it what you will, lovely people!
Things you need to know :
Within the theme suggested-
You can post something you've written or something you've drawn or an image
You don't have to write beautifully or perfectly.
You don't have to write a lot.
Also, you don't need to be an amazing photographer or artist
But rather, just post something about the theme. Words or pictures. Or both. Just have a go. Simple.
Perhaps you might post some distant memories, or a story you made up, or an old photo, maybe tell us something you once read about the theme, write in rhyme, detail a snatch of overheard conversation, you might recount an anecdote... it could be anything really.
Just some words. Or some pictures. Or both.
Like I said, nothing fancy.
Just do it your way.
Just for fun.
Sign up below, if you would like to join in!

I really love the long drive photo you've chosen.
ReplyDeleteThis is the perfect nudge for me to write about the beautiful journey driving from Brisbane - Melbourne and back again a week or two again. (for the Stitches & Craft show, and then wonderfully meeting you at mikes!).
ReplyDeleteThanks for this theme.
Thanks for the memories Pip!
ReplyDeleteI had planned to write about something else, but mine just came back to me. Funny about inspiration.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely photo, and some lovely stories and images from other people already. For me the idea of a long drive brought back memories of drives that went terribly and as a consequence felt eternal! I love the idea of this project, look forward to taking part again in the future.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiration. I have been reading the stories but decided I couldn't miss out on the fun so joined in!
ReplyDeleteGreat topic Pip - I love a long drive almost as much as I love arriving home from one xxx
ReplyDeleteHello Pip
ReplyDeleteThought I'd take part this week - love your photo. Would you like to tell where it is?
Take care
Cathy
What a great inspirational shot, thanks.
ReplyDeleteHi Pip,
ReplyDeletegreat topic, I'm having fun dredging up old memories
Pip
I'll give it a try.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I read this weeks theme, I knew I wanted to join in - one particular long drive is never far from my mind. Thanks for the inspiration x
ReplyDeleteI really like this idea. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMy post is scheduled to come up tomorrow morning, but I linked in now because I know that I will forget to do it tomorrow... Hope that is OK.
The photo was taken on the drive down to the beach at Flinders in Victoria!
ReplyDeleteDear Pip,
ReplyDeleteThis might sound really stupid,but do I need to have a blog to join in with Words and Pictures?
P.S.I have just ordered your book from readings.
Love Louisa
I have just shared my long drive memory too!
