What a turnaround

 Writing Contest

                                                              Facebook

Several years ago, I entered the Bristol Short Story Contest, but withdrew my application as I saw 3 of the 4 judges were looking for stories with a theme from Asia. I am considering expanding a story I wrote, partly set in India into a possible series. This project is depending on if the opening book sells.

I am even considering entering a writing contest this year.

Facebook Ban

This week, I was banned from using my Facebook account as one of the links I posted on my page went against their rules; naturally, I asked for a review of the case. Years ago, a jealous writer I used to know said she would get FB to block my account, at the time, I pleaded with her to change her mind. Now, if my account is deleted it will have no effect, other than to cut my blog readerr figures. The only contact I have on Fb was with my family, and we are now in a WhatsApp group, so that is no loss to me.

The Truth be told, if I get a ban it will save me from deleting the account; I had over 140 "followers," mainly from when I was on a writing site based in Germany, that was over a decade ago. 

No room for Criminals

 Facebook

The lates news must warm the cockles of the hearts of the criminals in the UK.

Two former soldiers were given prison sentences for putting anti-Islam posts on Facebook. If that is the future, there will be no room for real criminals as most of the UK residents are up in arms about Labour allowing illegal immigrants to flood the country.
