Examples of her work

Jacqueline is prolific in her writing and the stories below will change so do check back regularly.  

Here are a few examples:

Dribbles and Drabbles -

LET LOOSE

Dad was the strict disciplinarian, or so we thought.

Tattoos and piercings were forbidden and church every Sunday.

His reaction to Mum’s death a year ago made us realise she was the martinet not him.

Now, he and his multi-pierced girlfriend run a tattoo parlour.

The vicar is not welcome.

 This is a dribble of 50 words

JASON’S PROBLEM

‘It’s useless’, moaned a frustrated Jason, ‘I can’t get it stiff enough to stay up.’

Debbie stroked his leg, ‘Don’t get upset love. It’s a common problem for men your age’.

He turned away, embarrassed, ‘Not helpful’, he mumbled.

‘Let me try,’ she coaxed, ‘I got it up for you last week and…’, she grinned, ‘it stayed stiff for quite a while.’

‘But what if you can’t this time?’ he asked miserably.

‘Well, if I can’t get it nicely erect then you will have to accept that you are balding and your hair is now too thin for a Mohican’.

 This is a drabble of 100 words 

HAIKUS -

The haiku is a Japanese poetic form that consists of three lines, with five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the third. Jacqueline has used this form to create stories (nano-fiction).

HONESTY

She wanted to say

She loved him with all her heart

But she could not lie
