RMweb Gold colin penfold Posted November 1, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 1, 2014 Whilst drinking some old peculier last night I notced Theakstons have a new writing initiative. This time it's ten word crime novels. I reckon some people on here might enjoy having a go. Here are two examples to get you started, written by me. Come on you frustrated authors! Novel 1 The bank had lots of money. Now it has none. Novel 2 Smothered with a pillow, it was a crime of cushion! Over to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
