:new: Just a reminder there is only a few days left on this image! There's only 1 entry so far, and I know of many people behind on FFM that could do with a cheeky prompt!


Welcome to our FotoFriday session @ CRLiterature!

Two months ago, we relaunched FotoFriday at CRLiterature and this is our continuation! Two weeks ago, we gave the following image as a prompt:


And here are the pieces by those who were inspired to write something...

sunset kissesyou pour me a cup of sunrise in the morning,
right after you caress my moonshine face,
covering it with glowing starkisses before
you spread your wings and jump into the diamond sky.
i've been dreading this day for eternity;
the day you never return from the dark matter,
never return to pour me another cup
of the sunset sprawling across my mind.
TwilightA sky afire;
Sipping warm, bitter brews
You and me. 
FaehoundThe fairy folk are an awful lot like cats. I believe this is why Mistress Hazelle and Master Wyatt gave me the form of a dog.
Mistress Hazelle tries to educate the other humans about the fairies, but how many remember to hang an iron horseshoe over the nursery window until after the baby has been switched? Too few. That is why Mistress Hazelle is a witch and not those people. You have to be smart to be a witch.
There is no getting a child back after it has been taken. There is only vengeance. As long as there are people who do not listen to smart witches, I will always have a job to do.
I wish someone could watch me when I do my job. A pat on the head and a “Good Boy” feel even better when the humans have an opportunity to appreciate the care given to every detail. The parents of the decoy babies do not usually show much gratitude. Maybe if they watched that would change.
They cannot though because that would scare away the game. Only I can be in the nursery when the

Dad says, “Where the fuck have you been?”
And Mummy says, “With my friends.”
And Dad says, “Which friends?”
She went out with Terry. Terry is her bestest friend, apart from me. He let me have Superman and Batman.
And Mummy says, “Lola,” so I guess I am wrong.
And Dad says, “I don’t fucking think so,” and there is a bang and a bang and a bang, like he was throwing things inside the house. I hate him.
I love Mummy. I can’t hear her.

The front door opens and slams shut. Then I open my bedroom door.
“Let’s go!” I tell my men (Superman and Batman). “The coast is clear and we must complete our mission.”
Then I run down the stairs and I stop because I do
SunsetIn the end, they were sitting at the table.
She picked up her cup of tea and looked out the window, causing her husband to wince. "You always do this, you know,” she said.
“I do.”
She still refused to look back at him. “What did I do wrong?”
“Nothing!” He got out of his chair and moved next to her, taking her hand and ignoring the fact that she still wouldn’t look at him. “I just couldn’t stop myself.”
“From taking a hooker out to dinner?” She laughed as she finished, turning the tea cup around. “I’m so tired of all this, of you going out with hookers and then coming home and telling me that there is nothing wrong with me.”
“But there isn’t anything wrong with you,” he said.
She smiled. “Of course there is. What can I give you, cups full of tea, evenings sitting at home, a muse for your art? You don’t want that. You want excitement, sex, the roll of the dice as


Please be kind enough to share your thoughts and comments (maybe even favourite if you like!) their work! They've been brave and stepped up to the first week and got the ball rolling, so we thank them for getting involved!


How does FotoFriday Work?


Every other Friday we will post a photograph from a deviants gallery that we find intriguing and interesting. Using this photograph as a prompt, you are encouraged to write something, anything based on it. It doesn't matter what form of writing, how much you write or even whether you end up with a complete piece- this is all about the prompt and what it spurs!


Are there any rules?


There is only one rule- RESPECT THE PHOTOGRAPHER! At the end of the day, we are using their image and therefore should be offering full credit to them in our artists comments. We also ask that nobody uses the image as a preview image without permission of the photographer.

Please note the #CRLiterature team have asked photographers via #CRPhotography if we can use their work in this way. If you are a photographer who is interested in their work possibly being used, please sign up via #CRPhotography!
