coyleys 10 #1 Posted October 25, 2006 Hi everybody, I have just got my password, and so can have a read and possibly comment, not that I’m qualified to comment. At this moment I have very little to offer regarding stories, but I will get my head down and see if I can conjure up some creative inspiration. The only thing on offer at the moment is some excerpts from my school day memories, which some of you may have already had a read, as I have posted some on SF, looking for some constructive criticism. Anyway have a butcher’s and tell me the worst. Now we go back to 1964. There is more on my home page, if you are so inclined.

Jabberwocky 46 #3 Posted October 25, 2006 Im going to enjoy your website too, a quick skim through it was fascinating and I agree about everybody wtiting a book of their life. Most of the stuff I write here is about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mantaspook 14 #4 Posted October 26, 2006 Hi Coyleys, Well, I’ve had a butchers at your story and I thought it was really good, a nice warm nostalgic tale told at the right pace with just the right amount of humour. Well done sir! Also 10 extra credits for mentioning Henderson’s Relish – that always goes down well on the forum. I’ve also had a brief foray onto your website, the “Friday the 13th in Africa” clip had me in stitches, when I have more time I’ll definitely make a return visit. Please keep posting you stories on here – I’m already looking forward to your next one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
shoeshine 10 #5 Posted October 26, 2006 Hiya coyleys, and welcome to the Group. I've just had a quick glance at your first contribution and will read it in full later today. Like Jabberwocky, I had a peep at your website some days ago ( at the point you requested a password.......Oops! you didn't know that did you? ) and although it was only a quick glance, I was very impressed with it. I expect to give it a good lookover during the coming week! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

sauerkraut 10 #11 Posted October 27, 2006 My favourite bit was the reference to the Irish goldfish! Very cleverly understated...nice touch! The story certainly seems to prove the adage that some of the best writing is about subjects the writer has personally experienced.
