4 articles I didn't use

Plus a recorded discussion about one of them, plus a remarkable reveal

Greetings!

Although I’m prolific, not everything I write is worth reading. At least, not in my opinion. But I thought you might be interested in seeing some of these rejected articles. I’d be interested in your opinion. Do they show promise? (Most of them are incomplete.) Do you like the finished one? What do you think of the discussion? Let’s go!

A Trabble: Do storms cause insanity?

My first experience of storm-induced insanity occurred in 1985. I was working at a school, and woke up to fairly extreme weather conditions. Snow was falling rapidly, incessantly and heavily, and public transport was closing down gradually and inexorably. I made it into school because I drove in, but staff numbers were very much depleted. Classes were doubled-up, lessons were taking place in the school hall and the gym. Parents were being contacted to come and take their offspring home, and the older kids had already been dismissed.
