Music

In The Painted Room (Karen Gibson Roc)

This article introduces you to Roc’s music and has been combined with a fictional story about how I imagined it being created.

Remember Who The F*ck You Are

This was for one of the earliest Vocal challenges I ever took part in. Possibly even the very first?

Fiction

(All written for Vocal or Unofficial Challenges)

Convention

A short fiction highlighting prejudice in our society. Written with PRIDE in mind and for an unofficial challenge.

Return From Neverland

One of the very few stories that wasn’t inspired by a challenge but rather a philosophical concept about the nature of reality.

The Story of Humanity

A micro micro fiction

pempto-pimpto-peptides

A micro fiction of satire about the beauty industry

The Book Club

This was for a Halloween challenge about a witches coven. I based mine on a true story…. A story which reinforces that we should be very careful with our wrath and what we manifest 😉

Charlie & the Chocolate Rocket

A cute retelling of the original with a space slant and life wisdom woven in. It would make a great bedtime story for your little one… and you can create the next chapters with them… how cute would that be?

Mirror Mirror

This is the only dark story you will find here! It was for a challenge and the first line was the prompt. I couldn’t come up with anything that wasn’t dark… and to be honest… it was written at a very, very dark time for me. I used to work in mental health wards and this experience definitely provided powerful inspiration for the story.

The Drug Dealer Healer

Not that great a story. Was amusing while I lived in Colombo, Sri Lanka and I had just created the most amazing hibiscus medicine.

Scarlet Prayers

I need to reread this - because from memory it was one that I was really proud of and very sad it didn’t place in the competition. I remember the characters being powerful, the story being based on real people and current events that I researched heavily. Maybe it wasn’t as great as I thought or maybe it was and the competition was just stronger! I will update this note after I return to it!

Death By Chocolate*

This was one I really enjoyed writing. I’m still really happy with the unexpected twist I wrote into the end - which will change the way you saw the entire story! And it’s not dystopian in the slightest!!!!! The title is perhaps misleading in that way - there is a journey of adventure that risks death - but no one dies and it’s not scary!

Naked Encounters

Chasing Waterfalls

Brown Paper Box

I was watching a lot of Hallmark movies when I created these three. Which all have the same main character. Cute stories of escapism. If you are looking for something nice to read, try Naked Encounters!

Little Black Notebooks

This was my entry for that BIG Moleskine competition for $20,000 that had many of us dreaming!! We had to write a story that included a little black notebook. This was my emotive take on the prompt.

The Origin of Bitcoin

A story that took me a week of research before I even began writing. The main character is based on a real historical character and his reputation. Fiction was created around him and the founder of IBM. I even researched if they were ever in the same country at the same time and they indeed were. This fiction had to be conceivably possible - which is why it took so long to research.

A huge thank you to Matthew Fromm for his brilliant problem solving creativity via article My Magical Library (which inspired me to do this) 🥰 I sooo wanted to steal the name, but I reasoned it would be plagiarism! Apparently I thought stealing a historical name is not. 🥰🤔😂❤️✨
