Day One
After my boss successfully ruined this years spring bank holiday by making me work on Monday, I finally find the time to drop down a few lines about my short-term vacation in London.
I had a few days left over from last years vacation (my boss really loves it, when I'm at the office), just enough for a short trip to London. First of all: Hotels in London are way too expensive!
I put up in Fulham, near Putney Bridge, which was a cool place to start, or would have been, if the District Line hadn't been suspended for the weekend.
The weather was fantasic, so I thought I'd take a trip to Brighton on my first day. OK, you might say, she can have that at home, and you're probably right. To be honest, I think the beaches in the Swansea Bay area are prettier, but this being Brighton, it has it's very own feel.
Guest Stories
I had the very exciting opportunity to publish a story, written by my dear friend Virginia. I always hoped to get someone else to write for this platform, although it might be a bit weird, since the site is named Afanen-Writes. So having writers on here, who are not, well, me, is a little bit confusing.
However, when Virginia told me, she wrote a short story, and asked me for an opinon, I was really excited. After reading it, I was hooked. She has a way of working with words, that I can only envy her for. The whole thing is very poetic, I love the setting and the idea to express feelings through music.
Plus, of course, there is hardly anything more beautiful than a beautiful woman playing music, right?
Mmmh, too many spoilers here, so just read for yourself Sonata In B Minor.
