Weekly Contest #229
I, Holly, my boyfriend of three years, Axel, and my adopted daughter, Kiku were at Axel’s apartment watching a cartoon Christmas Carol movie for a date. Axel and I were in our thirties. Kiku, who was six, out dressed the both of us in her purple unicorn dress. She was also the most active by tending to a doll while Axel and I just cuddled on the couch. I met Axel while I was adopting my daughter. He was a volunteer helping. He wasn’t ever adopted, but he wanted to give back to the facility that took care of him for many years. Just whe...
Weekly Contest #225
It was midnight when I, Salina Wolfe, was in the bathroom looking in the mirror and hesitating. I am five-foot four in height. My hair is shoulder-length, auburn hair with side swept bangs to hide the scar over my left eye. My eyes are blue. I wore a t-shirt I received free at a restaurant that hasn’t been around for five years, black maternity pants with holes in them, and socks and tennis shoes that used to be white at one point and both have holes in them. ~What am I doing? Am I really doing this? Do I have a choice? Do I ever have a ch...
Weekly Contest #221
“So you think you’re dead, and you decided to haunt me?” I recapped the story he just told me. I am Nerina the Apprentice Witch, and I wasn’t amused. My outfit was the magic school’s uniform which was for witches; a dark robe, dark hat, and brown boots. My skin is a light shade of blue, and my hair and eyes change color with my mood, which at that time was red with anger. We were near my locker, I had my backpack on, and I really wanted to go home on time. “We…lllllll, I remember eating lunch, but after that, my mind is blank.” The appariti...
Weekly Contest #211
I, Mrs. F., was getting ready to read one of my new books titled The Fox’s Adventure. There was a fire in the fireplace, my favorite rocking chair with a blue quilted throw blanket, an end table with a lamp, a cup of hot cocoa and two chocolate chip cookies on a plate, a blue, flowery throw rug, and Mr. F.’s recliner chair was to the right of mine. Mr. F. was at the newest zombie movie with Mr. E. Once there was a fox named Ember. She lived a nice quiet life, but on...
Weekly Contest #209
Sensitive item: Slavery “One order of Raatte Carbonara extra Ketchup!!!!” The chef bellowed. Sadly, another customer and I came up to retrieve it. An interstellar rule is that when two people order the exact same thing in a diner, they have to share, even if it is a burned, chicken-sized rat on a stick. Sharing wasn’t in my plans. “Come, we can sit here.” The Aca’t, who was the other customer, ordered while taking the plate of food, and ushering me to a booth near...
Weekly Contest #207
“Cut! Cut! Cut! Now, Mr. Thorn, what did I just say about you needing to show more emotion?” the director bellowed. His voice echoed in the cave where we were filming. The director has dark brown hair, hazel eyes, and is five-foot ten. He has the habit of pinching his nose before he yells at the actors, and his nose was red in the areas where he pinched. I was acting as a rock character, which was an additive character because I know the author of the book. My hair was dyed grey, had to wear grey contacts, and my height is five-foot four. &n...
