The pigeons in our garden have been amorously inclined all week. For this week’s fast draft, write down all your associations to pigeons. Memories, likes/dislikes, Trafalgar Square, sounds etc. Now write a piece where pigeons feature as a backdrop for another kind of relationship. Probably between humans. You could even call your characters Bill and Coo.
