October 2024
It's getting colder and I've got my jumper on! Must be
time for the October edition of Winamop..
I have a nice collection of stories, art and poetry for
you this time but before we get into that I must tell you about Gary Beck's new
novel "Call to Valor" which is available at
Amazon.
Looks exciting!
Back here at Winamop central we'd better get started on
the new stuff.
Here it is:
Max
Rauhman is new to Winamop and introduces himself to us with this
story about a father and son who enter an essay contest. This contest has a
very unusual prize.. It's called Allow Me To Introduce
Myself..
Michael
Smith is back with another short story. A mysterious note has been
pushed under a hotel door. It instructs our protagonist to go to have
Kaffee und Kuchen (coffee and cake) at a rather nice Viennese
café..
KJ Hannah
Greenberg brings us a story this time. Emily loved crayons, arts and
crafts generally, but crayons were at the top of her list. Crayon
Smiles details her life.
Terry
Brinkman has a little story for us. It's about the time of year
we're in, fruit picking time, and the birds who come to join in. It's called
Blue Birds.
Fabrice B. Poussin has a collection
of beautiful images for us in addition to the poem below.
Terry Brinkman has a great new
piece of art called Desert Sleep. It's on his art page where you
can see all his other pictures too.

a collection of her colourful digital art. This'll cheer you up!
Fabrice B.
Poussin is back for 2024 with these new poems: Commonplaces -
Medieval lady - Sunday feast - Tour Busses and Wish I Could Sing

Conversations.

nighttime about dark days in that country.

two SonnetsSonnet CCCLXXX and Sonnet CCCLXXI.

Something you missed? Catch up on previous editions
by clicking this word. They are all
there, right back to 2003.
Winamop was conceived on a
whim, is run on a shoestring, ignored by the many, loved by the few and has
continued unabashed since 2003.
All human life is here,
experienced people, skilled writers and rank amateurs, sometimes they hit the
mark, sometimes they belly-flop (sometimes they mix their metaphors). You pick
up the pieces and make of them what you will. Find out about us
here and about the site here.The contributor's guidelines are
here and the e-mail button is below.
We hope to continue to maintain a showcase
for new writing which will grow as you, dear readers, augment the efforts of
the in-house team. We have over 800 unique pages so far but, quite frankly, we
need more...
Have a good look around and if you feel
that you'd like to contribute in any genre, then don't be shy, send it in! The
copyright remains yours, and you could win a mop (unlikely, as I've run
out).
Jump straight to a category using the
buttons at the top of the page, they work from any page. Remember, it's all
free and is made from 100% natural ingredients!

page ratings, if you don't rate a page you won't get one!
