Inklings // May 2024

And here we are in May. Can you believe it?!? First off, I'm thrilled so many of you were also excited and joined in with our Inklings! If you haven't already, be sure to check out everyone else's wonderful entries below. You'll also find the new prompt for May. 

(My blogger account -- or our firewall, not sure which -- is still acting weird and won't always let me comment on the computer so I have to do it off my phone, which is slightly tricksy, but I'm hoping to come round and leave proper comments on all your lovely contributions asap. <3)

Rules:

1. At any time during the month, on your own blog post a scene from a book or film that matches the prompt, including a link back here in your post.

2. Leave a link to your entry in the comments section on this post and I'll post all your links with the next prompt. That's it!

April Round-Up:

May's prompt is:

A scene with a pearl necklace in book or film

My brain was spinning with ideas for this one, but ultimately I ended up going with this tried and true scene -- Bertie and Aunt Agatha and the Stolen Pearls during their sojourn at Westcombe-on-Sea in The Con (based in part on the short story Aunt Agatha Takes the Count in The World of Jeeves). It's a climactic moment so I won't divulge too many details, but it's also notable in being one of the few moments (only moment?) when Bertie stands up directly to Aunt Agatha. xD 

An all around classic.
