Let’s start off our week with some horse studies. Giddyup!

Three Things: The Imaginary Friend Edition
This week we have an imaginary friend sitting next to us, looking over our shoulder as we write, whispering in our ear. Or maybe it’s a more playful friend, launching spit balls in our general direction. In any case, let’s write an imaginary someone into our scene this week, shall we?

Today, fresh from our falling edition of last week, let’s carry on the dream state and call upon three more surreal images, shall we? No point in heading back to reality just yet, not when there are so many strange things to ponder (and write about).
