Ashore. Definitely a step up in difficulty from the last couple weeks, but very enjoyable.

On shore. Caught the drift quickly and the rest fell right into place.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

I think I said iambic pentameter would cause a problem...

We find ourselves in need of prose in form.
I will report that I have tried my best,
It looks as though I might have done this right.
The shoreline slowly creeps into my view.
If I'm around, I am willing to join the Muggle Zoom room at other times to lend a hand to those in need.

On shore. Fun one, and agree it's a bit harder than recent weeks.

On to Week 4!

A bit more thinking this week, but pretty straightforward once you go down the right path. Count me ashore.

That was really fun. I wondered if it was going in a slightly risque direction there for a bit!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Yes, this one got the wheels turning again, against some resistance for a change!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!
