The Hunted House On Nightmare Road



I have been delighted with the way that my precious ratbag bunch (that's a long way to say kids) have taken an interest in my blog and my readers. Dimples often has suggestions for posts so one day recently I offered him a guest post. He refused on the basis that he had nothing to say. That'd be a first.
A couple of years ago Dimples wrote a masterpiece. It took him quite some time and many, many pages. I thought I'd share a bit with you. I'm going to leave it unedited, I'm sure you'll enjoy the challenge of making sense of it.



I enter the house on nightmare road on a full moon then I creap along a hallway full of cobwebs. I open a door my heart thumping I hear a crack come from the floor. I open a wardrobe I'm terrified. A vampire pounces I shreak in horror dodge grab the chiar and smash it on his head stab him with the shap broken chiar leg while he's unconshesh. "That's the end of him" I say to myself. so i run.
I hear a witch crackling away. I hear footsteps coming from behind me I turn and grab a torch off the wall and and blind a one eyed freak while he swings his arms around I grab asword from a knights costume and duck take 2 steps jump and stab him
"one more story for the media" I say to myself.

  1. would you just look at how cute that story is???? Being an English teacher, it didn't take long for me to decipher it - although I did have a strong urge to correct it in red pen! Such a vivid imagination - my favourite parts are 'I heard a witch crackling' and 'Another story for the media' - very nonchalant, love it!

    Love ya,

  5. How come I never got to read that story? It's so cute, and typically Dimples.

    By the way, that photo is the best photo i've ever seen of you, kyles. I might've seen better baby photos (cause you have baby pics), but this is the best grown up one.

    It's a good pic of both of you.

  13. Hiya Kyles,

    Terrific story from Dimples. He is very creative. Imagine Luke & he acting out skits together. Does he like to play act or do the creative juices flow better on paper? No matter, he has a wonderful talent which will bring a great deal of enjoyment to others if he chooses to continue to develop it.

    Blessings,
    Amanda
