CHALLENGE: We are traveling 60 mph on the interstate going home from our Ashland stay. Suddenly we see brakelights four or five cars ahead of us and watch a minivan swerve off to the shoulder of the highway and slide to an immediate stop, gravel flying. A young woman flings open the drivers door, jumps out, runs around the front of the van, and yanks open the passanger door. We were past her before we could see what caused her to stop so suddenly. In 55 words what just happened?
He said he would call her by 5:00PM if she got the job. She had waited until 5:30PM before heading for home on the freeway. The sound of her phone ringing was muffled inside her purse. She grabbed for it, knocking the phone onto the floor of the passenger side, just out of her reach.....
Awesome.....you have a very creative mind :)
ReplyDeleteGood 'un, Parrot. Writing prompts are the greatest thing since the invention of ice cream, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteI think we've all done this from time to time. I remember one day when I got mad and threw my phone in the backseat while driving down I-95 at 70 mph. Just as it hit the floor it started to ring and I had to pull over to find it. By the time I did it had already gone to voicemail.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I missed your prompt. I'll try to catch up. My hubbie took this week off of work without telling me beforehand. I love those kind of surprises! Of course I've gotten no writing done, but I'm not complaining.
Great!! Thanks again for doing this prompt - it seems everyone had a great time with it.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely been there, done that with this one.
ReplyDeleteYep, think we all have done something like this!
