Thanks very much, Caro 🙏

I’m publishing the story from your prompt on Monday and it has to be one of the toughest and most edited stories I’ve ever written 😆

How could 100 words be so difficult?! 😁

Knights and Dragons and Dragonhearts, what's not to love? Plus, it's a movie I still have the poster for!

You found the perfect ending line, Dan! Love it. It's lovely. Some tension, some flecks of backstory, a build-up, and then a release with those final words. Bravo, my friend.

Thanks very much, Nathan 🙏

It’s funny, the stories flow and then I get to that last line, and I can spend ages trying to get it right, and most often never do, so I’m delighted you enjoyed it 😃

I honestly think that (for me, at least) it is the hardest part of writing. How to end things, even if just a chapter.

You nailed it :)
