Reciprocity is 'the condition of being reciprocal'. It's doing something in return, mutual actions, give and take, inversely correspondent, complementary. After I plant flower seeds, they reciprocate by blooming. This act of reciprocation is then follwed by another – bees visit to collect food, pollinate my plants and continue a recrocating cycle.
Have you ever behaved reciprocally?
If you win the £16,000 first prize, or even one of the three £8,000 awards for this free to enter playwriting competition, as a result of seeing it here, I hope you'll reciprocate my kindness in posting about it by buying me a cake. A big one. With a cherry on top.
p.s. I have a new collection of short stories out. Family Feeling is currently on sale for the reduced price of 99p (99c)
I won't be able to reciprocate this time, Patsy, as I don't intend entering but I'll keep that in mind for the future!
ReplyDeleteChocolate or yellow cake?
ReplyDeleteI hope I reciprocate appropriately as it's the kind thing to do. I don' like being a leech on someones elses time or energy.
ReplyDelete@ Rosemary – As you've already supplied me with cake, I'll let you off this time.
ReplyDelete@ Alex – chocolate please!
@ Em – Me neither. I think most people do tend to reciporocate the effort of others in some way.
I won't be entering this one, but rest assured if I enter something you've told be about, and win, you'll get a great big cake! :)
