Creative Writing CV
Sarah's extensive poetry and short story publications and competition successes.
Why read Sarah's blog?
This short piece should help people find their way round the various categories of my blog so they can get the most of the many posts on offer.
Nine in the house...
I don't think my parents will be inviting guests to stay again...not after the catalogue of things that have gone wrong since we arrived!
Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
You've got to laugh!
A lot of proverbs/cliches sprung to mind this week after what was really just a silly, stupid mistake!
Webs of Wonder
Another writelink Yule Sing Me One Song entry: whatever our race or religion, there is one thing we can all have faith in this Christmas.
As One
An entry for the writelink Yule Sing Me One Song contest about how Christmas should be celebrated across the globe.
Does all practice makes perfect?
A little while ago someone put a poll up on the main writelink forums. It asked something like would people rather be paid for a story published in a popular woman's magazine or be unpaid but published in a literary magazine?
I spoke too soon!
Yes, I did tempt tempt fate by blogging about my son being a sheep (not a train, thank goodnesss) in his school nativity play!
At least my son isn't a train!
Oh, the joys of being a parent in the run-up to Christmas! If it isn't cards and negotiating Santa's shopping list then it's nativity costumes and Christmas parties.
Yule Sing Me One Song - but it's gonna be hoarse!
I started work on a couple of entries for the writelink Christmas song competition a while back. To say it's not going well would be an understatement!
First Choice
This piece is as much a puzzle as a piece of flash fiction, though it was inspired by the message for 30th November on the Messages website. But would you be able to guess the right answer?
Blatant publicity but...
This is blatant publicity but also a chance to enjoy some beautiful photos and poems for free.
Earlier this year, I was lucky enough to have one of my poems (Dandelion Clock) chosen for a writers' calendar. It would make a great present for any writer, poetry lover or photographer, but anyone can get a free sneak preview here.
Boobless, clueless and speechless/wordless
Well, the title says it all really. It's just been one of those weeks. Now I'm so tired I've forgotten how to sleep and can't remember which one of the above I lost first!
