A Sunday Snippet

When I woke up on the morning after it had happened, I didn’t remember at first. I couldn’t remember. I thought I would have been able to tell, that I would feel different, but everything was the same as always.

The nurses came in and out of the room, doing their usual observations, while I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. I don’t know how long it was before I finally woke up properly.

I still felt drowsy at the time, but the food trolley had come around and one of the healthcare assistants was shaking me, and asking me what I wanted for lunch.

I shrugged. It didn’t seem important. I wasn’t really hungry. I wasn’t really anything.

All I felt, was empty. She had gone, and she’d never be back, and I’d barely even known her.

I’m a member of the best writing community online. It’s called the Ninja Writers Club . If you’re a writer, you should really check it out. There are lots of awesome classes, write ins, accountability, and just the feeling of being in a community of people who love writing just as much as you, is pretty amazing.

I really can’t explain how much this community has helped me. My writing quality and productivity has improved dramatically. Seriously.
