No Bees for me ...


Prompt 8 is all about collaborative writing and including the voices of others in your storytelling -include the words of you + another person taken straight from everyday life or write your perspectives of the same event with a friends (without comparing notes) and see what specifics you both remember!


In the car on the way home from school ....

Me:  So how was Inter-relate today? (gender seperated 4 part series of sex education classes)

Son  (just 12):  ..........GLARE........

Me:  That good huh???

Son (just 12):  .....Groan...

Me:  So what was the topic today??

Son (just 12):  (whispering) puberty - it was grose!

Me:  Oh

Son (just 12):  but the girls were even more grossed out than us

Me:  Hmmm (thinking that the prospect of 40+ years of monthly bleeding could do that!)

Me:  So what's the topic next week?

Son (just 12):  making babies ....... but I am NOT talking about it ........

Me:  OK sounds like fun .. so you don't want to ask me any questions now??? (joking)

Son (just 12):  .........GLARE........
