#FallWritingFrenzy 2021

I love a good writing competition! They challenge you to write something fresh, get those creative juices flowing and step outside your comfort zone. It’s also a wonderful way to connect with other writers of kid lit and have a little fun together. Below is my entry for this year’s #FallWritingFrenzy 2021 competition.

ONE FULL MOON 

By Pippa Chorley

A counting board book, numbers 1-20.

One full moon.                                                                                 

A glaring of cats.                                             

A coven of witches.                                         

A cloud of bats.                                                

A haunting of ghosts.                                       

A chorus of howls.                                           

A porchway of pumpkins.                                       

A parliament of owls.       

A stagger of zombies.

A graveyard of stones.

A gnashing of teeth.

A clatter of bones.                 

A magic of wands. 

A millinery of hats.

An autumn of leaves.

A mischief of rats.              

A cauldron of candy.

A sweep of broomsticks.

A clutter of spiders.                                                                 

A bag full of tricks.

 Everyone scream…

… Happy Halloween!
