Twitterisms

The Assignment: 
This week’s assignment will require the fewest number of words ever: we want you to write a story – your choice of topic – as a tweet.


I had fun with this topic, so I wrote a couple different ones. I've always been a girl of few words. 

*****************

Waiting for years, miscarriages and stillbirths, waiting for a miracle. When you finally look in her eyes, you know it was all worth it.

*****************

She walks alone, not because she has to, but because she wants to. He'll never understand her, because he's never had to walk in her shoes.

*****************

The baby is sleeping across her lap as she stares at the computer, waiting to be inspired. Does her lap make a comfy bed? Not likely.

(I wrote this one while BK was asleep on my lap and I was trying to decide what to write!)

*****************

"It's not hard," he tells her. "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours." Which is fine, except she'd rather stab his back than scratch it.
