500 Words XXIX - This Week's Sentence

It's Friday, so it must be homework time.
Er … yay!

This week’s sentence is taken from Wilkie Collins’ ‘The Moonstone.’

It was:
‘The Thursday night passed, and nothing happened.’

Hmm … There's a nice blank canvas for you. Let your fervid imaginings spill forth all over it and we'll read the results like a Rorschach test next Thursday.

You know the rules. Get writing, people.

Gosh, this is like a line from my life ... I could almost write a story with this one. lol

MmeB I was going to say the same thing! Well, I did go swim on Thursday, but that's hardly worth writing a story about. I look forward to the Rorschach results.

Mme: I think you should use this opportunity to get out your pencil and come join us.

Katie: I'd read a story about you going swimming. Especially one with pictures. Hee hee.
I'm looking forward to the Rorschach results, too.

What a great start--and Wilkie Collins--there's someone I haven't thought about in a long time (even though I have several of his books). I hope you have a successful challenge.

Thank you, Savannah; you are too kind.
