In honor of a new school year (My first day starts in an hour!) and in honor of me thinking school started at 7:30, when it really starts at 9, I'm starting a new meme. This one is for all the writers and wannabe writers (like me) out there.Wednesday Writing: You come here Wednesdays and I'll give you a few words to write on or a picture to write about (Or you could choose your own.) You interpret the picture as you like. But there are a couple catches.
- You must include the 2-3 words I choose or write about the picture I post.
- You must tell a story.
- You can't write more than 100 words.
Leave a comment with a link so I can head over and comment on your wonderful creativity. Someday I'll have a contest for the best one...but who knows when that'll be. I may just surprise you!
So are you ready? This Wednesday's words are:
- clock (because I obviously can't tell time)
- first
- school
My Writing:
Angie punched the clock, hoping her time card would read 9:00 a.m. Angry red numbers screamed 9:17. Late on her first day. "You're late," a peevish voice grumbled from behind her. Mr. Sneely. His reputation had almost made her reconsider switching publishing houses. Almost.
"Hello Mr. Sneely I'm-"
"Don't let it happen again." His impatience was palpable as he waddled off to his office with a grumpy look on his face. Great, thought Angie. Four years of school and two years in publishing and this is who I have to deal with everyday. I should've majored in biology.

P.S. This meme was inspired by my lovely no-longer-my-english-teacher, :( Ms. Fletcher's assignmet for her Expository Reading and Writing Composition class and Susan Adrian's Tiara Day Contest.

Great idea.
Cool meme, awesome idea! I can't write to save my life and what with school I probably won't be able to participate :(
BTW I'm having contests every week in Sept. This week it's for a copy of Silver Phoenix by Cindy Pon.
