Carry On Tuesday # 156

A week ago I thought I’d posted my last ever Carry On Tuesday prompt. Since then I have been besieged by messages asking me to reconsider, and the number of contributions soared to four times that of the previous week! If ever I thought Carry On Tuesday had fallen out of favour, I was clearly wrong.  So, it’s business as usual! I do however have one request; I know we all lead busy lives, but it would be great if each of us could take a little time out to click on our fellow writer's links. Thank you. Right, carry on...!

Our prompt this week is the last sentence of Margaret Mitchell's 1936 novel Gone with the Wind

After all, tomorrow is another day.

Use some or all of the words in your poem or short story, then leave your details with Mister Linky. Please click on other links to see how our friends have used the prompt

To read a few other memorable quotes from Gone with the Wind and to see a wonderful trailer for the movie version of the book, pop over to Carry On Tuesday Plus

Possibly the last ever Carry On Tuesday # 155 Saturday May 12th 2012

Carry On Tuesday will be three years old on Tuesday next, the 15th of May. However, in the last couple of months the number of participants has dwindled to an amount which no longer justifies the work which goes into producing our weekly prompts. Whilst other sites use only single words or pictures, here at Carry On I can spend several hours a week reading and researching before coming up with a suitable first line, title or quotation. Carry On Plus also takes a considerable amount of time to produce. So, this may be the last ever Carry On Tuesday prompt - I'll be deciding what to do before next weeks deadline. So watch this space!

*****

This week I've chosen the English title of a well known Italian song, Con te Partiro better known as....

TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

Use it at the start of or within your piece then hand your URL over to Mister Linky. A comment would be appreciated.

Carry On Tuesday # 152 / Saturday 7th April

Carry On Tuesday is taking a two week break. Usually when I go on my travels I can be pretty sure of finding a computer to use, but on this trip I will be visiting some pretty remote places and I don't want to make you a promise which I may not be  able to deliver. Mister Linky is staying behind so feel free to have as many stabs at this week's as you like over the coming fortnight. The next prompt will appear on Saturday April 28th unless of course I decide not to come back! Miss you already! Keith.

This week our prompt is the opening of an untitled poem generally known as Lines on a Clock in Chester Cathedral by Henry Twells.

When as a child, I laughed and wept

Use some or all of these these words at the start or within your piece then leave your URL with the oddly titled Mister Linky! A comment will be appreciated. To read this poem go to Carry On Tuesday Plus where you'll also find out where the commonly used title came from.
