There's often a trigger word that gets things rolling.<br /><br />Lee; I noticed you hadn't contributed, but I knew you were busy catching up with your old friends.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-47570413906244431092016-05-21T07:38:22.585+09:302016-05-21T07:38:22.585+09:30Very good, River.

I've been busy these past couple of days...and yesterday caught up with old friends from long ago, again....so my mind has been in that space and not in writing.....perhaps I'll find some spare time during the weekend.<br /><br />Good job. :)Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-79203244746114858322016-05-21T02:41:50.321+09:302016-05-21T02:41:50.321+09:30Great story, and once again, I'm astounded you...Great story, and once again, I'm astounded you were able to use such a wide range of prompt words so well. (Not easy!)<br /><br />It's just as well the narrator was ready to give up the modeling life and go back home. Since she's closing in on thirty, she'd probably be about washed up in the modeling career anyway. Getting "too old..."<br /><br />Great job.

Also I have four children, five grandchildren and no bank account worth mentioning.<br />I'm so glad you liked my story.<br /><br />Elephant's Child; disappointment is often a big emotion that fills big spaces. It's like walking into a house where you can feel the occupants aren't happy in spite of the welcoming smiles.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-17220819674879659812016-05-20T05:42:22.242+09:302016-05-20T05:42:22.242+09:30You nailed this.

'their disappointment was filling the small kitchen' is a perfect line (and goes perfectly with the smell of Bratwurst and cabbage).Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-37807530123742040912016-05-20T02:02:33.183+09:302016-05-20T02:02:33.183+09:30River - is this fact or fiction?

I visted EC's blog today, and was disappointed to see your comment that I would have to wait until the 20th to see your post with the WforW words ... and then I realized that today IS the 20th where you live :) Great job!Susan https://www.blogger.com/profile/15294204009310379754noreply@blogger.com
