Guest Posts: Beg, Borrow and Steal




We’re sitting round the table, talking about the Blogging Challenge. “What are you going to write about for the letter ‘G’?” Mum asks.

“No idea.” I haven’t got a clue as to what my G post is going to be about yet.

“You should get a Guest Post for today’s letter. You could always ‘borrow’ one. ‘Guest’ begins with a ‘G’ after all,” Mum jokes.

“You could make a theme out of that,” Callum said. “’Borrowed Post’ for B. ‘Pilfered Post’ for P.”

“’Stolen Post’ for ‘S’. “Thefted Post’ for ‘T’. Hmm, maybe a bit clunky. Still, a theme like that would make things so easy.” I grin at the thought

"'Taken Post' maybe?" Charlotte suggests. "And how about 'Filched' for F?"


We laugh. If only things were that easy. But no, stealing posts won’t work sadly. Somehow I don’t think that that would be an acceptable theme. I think I’ll have to stick to writing my own posts instead of stealing from other people, which would be bad. Still, I wonder, is it possible to make an A-Z out of words for Begging, Borrowing and Stealing blog posts? That would be something interesting to try.

    1. It's nice of you to say so. Most of the time I think that other people's posts are better, but I think I'll stick to writing my own posts. Where's the challenge in just taken other peoples?

    1. I think it's a line of thought getting more and more popular as the challenge progresses. Thanks for reading. I wasn't so sure people would see I was joking, but it's lovely to find that they do.

      Thanks! I love blue. if I was skillful enough, I'd make a blog background like I did the header, but sadly I'm not.

    1. It is. Of course now that we're past it I can think of other subjects, but when a letter is staring you in the face, it's hard to come up with something interesting, isn't it?
