King George III was the King of England from 1760 to 1820. History hasn't cast him in the best light, to America he is the Tyrant King they had to overthrow to gain their freedom. To England, he's the Mad King, who spent his final 10 years insane and locked away. He died, completely blind, deaf, unable to walk and suffering from dementia among other things. On Christmas 1819, he talked nonstop nonsense for 58 hours. When I read that about him, my mind went back to my Grandparents, my Nan's dementia and my Grandad's struggles with MS which slowly robbed him of the ability to use his own body. I saw how hard it was for them, but King George had to deal with all of that and more... That is what inspired this, sad thoughts about an old dying man being trapped in his own mind and body. The brief moments he is lucid enough to understand what is happening to him, but there's nothing he can do...

Revenge does not always taste so sweet...

"when all colour is gone, the rain begins..." this was a contest entry! it's not my best work but i'm pretty proud of the outcome. the story follows a girl who is colourblind, interlaced with poetic snippets. this girl is never named. she also has an (unnamed) brother who helps her deal with her colourblindness. however, the focus of the story isn't on the condition itself, but the colourblindness is more of a metaphor for her trying to find colour in the grey areas of life. i had to write this story in under 1000 words, so i hope that it's not too poorly written... anyway, enjoy!
