Thanks to my oh-so noisy kids, I am up way before I want to. Showers, breakfast making, frying pans landing not too softly on the stove…
Instead of tossing and swearing and turning and cussing, I got up and decided to see if I can make it on the first line of Friday Fictioneers! Thanks always to Rochelle for keeping us ducks in a row and this week, she even supplied her own photo…
Join in on the madness by clicking on the blue frog below and adding the link to your story. It’s fun and a great exercise in “removing the unnecessary fluff”.
Impasse
“We’ve reached an impasse,” Sofia said stonily.
“Come on! We can work this out. It will be a great project,” Ryan cajoled.
“No, I’m not interested. It’s not going to happen. You can’t change my mind.”
“It’s been in my family for years. I don’t want to just give it up.”
“Then don’t. Keep it.”
“But I want you with me in this!”
“No way in hell I am helping you turn this cold, dank, windowless pile of stone into a B&B.”
“It has so much potential. We can make it work.”
“Enjoy your project. Call me when it’s finished.”
