Dave and my mother have since written their own entries for this weekly contest. It’s calorie-free fun and, since I refuse to download the Words with Friends app, please indulge me with my little writing games. After all, it is National Grammar Day!
Remember the Rules: Everyone starts with the same 5 words and must turn it into his or her own story in only 33 words. The 5 introductory words are NOT to be counted in the 33 words. This week’s five words: “The phone rang at 4am.”
Here’s our second entry this week … entitled Following the Directions
The phone rang at 4am.
“Why the hell are you calling me this early?”
“Don’t blame me. Trifecta’s the one who said it had to be 4am.”
“What? That’s ridiculous. You should’ve just waited ’til the next contest.”
Don’t forget to go vote for your favorite!
