    Nature weeps, the devil sings
    at mans greed and pride
    and what it brings

    Just lots of useless
    little things

    Lol, I spent many happy summers in New Braunfels tubing the waterways of the Schlitterbahn, and the Guadalupe River. People would always say, before we jumped into the water, that we had to be wary because it was very cold, being drawn from the 150ft-deep bottom of the reservoir just the far side of the dam. But they failed to realise that, being British, our baths weren't even that warm.

    Never made it to "Scores" Bar and Grill though...

    You can participate if you've received an invitation PM. February's LM is different from the rest of the year. It's sort of like an annual 'championship.'

    Please see this post- https://www.writingforums.com/thread...=1#post2325356
    "When a child is abused, he or she will often internalise that abuse as deserved. It is a cruel reality that a child needs the parent so much, is evolutionarily programmed to trust them so implicitly, that when a parent is abusive the child will take the blame rather than completely upend their world and blame the person they depend on for survival." -velo

    I hadn't read the rules well.

    I thought it was free for everyone.
    Well, it will be one of my next goals.

    It is available to everyone, except for February, which is an annual comp that requires an invitation. Next up for everyone is the March comp. We start looking for prompts for March towards the end of February and will announce it on March 1. Hope to see you then!
    When the night has come
    And the land is dark
    And the moon is the only light we'll see
    I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
    Just as long as you stand by me.
