While my sister from across the sea, Marion Driessen (The DuTchess) is on vacation, I’m carrying on her Wednesday challenge. When she returns, she and I will do it on alternate Wednesdays.
BLAST — It comes suddenly. A blast of hot air. A blast of lightning. Someone fires a gun. Someone sets off a bomb. Someone loses control of emotion. A rocket takes off for the stars. A party turns out to be much more fun than you expected.
Write a tiny little story in only six words (not counting the title).
Here’s a Six Word Story by Ernest Hemingway.
Such an impact and unseen images in only six words…
Publish your Six Word Story on your own website/blog and paste the link to that post in a comment to this one here. I’ll post my own in the pm.
The next 6WSC at Figments of a DuTchess will be up on Wednesday, August 14th.
Is mine:
Struck
Lightning left only Pete’s wooden leg.

July 11, 2013 at 7:48amThanks, Damyanti. 🙂 That’s actually a photo of a tree right outside my mother’s door we saw get struck by lightning during a torrential rain and thunderstorm. It was raining too hard for it to burn, I guess. The lightning just blasted it into kindling. There were bits of wood all over the yard, and hanging in the leaves of other trees!
