I write non-fiction or creative non-fiction but I rarely write fiction. It's just so hard. However, the 33 word love story challenge at Trifecta just seemed like too much fun not to try. Click above and check out the other entries. Or try it.

ReplyDeleteI guess I can give it a shot:
The whip cracked again. This time the welt on his back opened up. He held back the safety word until the sixth whip. She whipped her love into him.

ReplyDelete"Navigating by instinct alone, it was inevitable we would collide. His tussled hair obscured his features, but his effortless slouch spoke volumes. He proceeded unfazed, but I knew he was texting about me."
