Weekly Contest #78
Jack knocked on his sister's door. "June, come out and keep me company. Mom and Dad have gone out to dinner." "Come in and help me up," Jack heard. Opening the door, he found his sister crouched on the floor, looking under her bed. "What are you looking for?" "I just dropped my knitting needle. I think it rolled under the bed." "It's behind you.

Weekly Contest #72
Grant the Grammar GuyI DON’T KNOW if you can call a man a wallflower, but there he stood against the wall. No one approached him or even waved in his direction. His suit fit a little big, and his hair looked unkempt. His beard went under his chin and down his neck. She hated that and grimaced.“What’s wrong with your drink, Lily?” “Nothing Louise, why?” Lily asked her sister. “Well, you just took a drink and wrinkled your nose.” “Oh, it’s ...
“Who?” “Your Uncle Rafferty’s son, Dominic.” “I didn’t even know Uncle Rafe had a son named Dominic.” “Apparently, Dominic is from your Uncle Rafferty’s first wife, Carole.” “He was married to someone before Aunt Gwendolyn?” “You didn’t know he was married before?”  ...
