Last week’s challenge: “The Titles Have Been Chosen.”
This week is pretty simple.
Using a random sentence generator, I’m concocting five random sentences.
Pick one and use somewhere in your story for this week.
The five sentences are:
- The shape fights the motionless ink.
- The portrait cat sneakily gestured at everyone.
- It walked inside the spaceship and then it sat down.
- When does the family document the thunder?
- The rough sex arrives by adhesive smoke.
So — you have ~1000 words.
Post online at your space, link back here.
You have one week — due by noon EST on Friday, May 10th.

My first time here, and maybe I did it wrong, as I saved it till Friday – I used the Portrait cat as well.

It’s also an In Memoriam for a guinea pig (one of my characters, too) who died last Friday.

http://brsbkblog.blogspot.co.uk/ I chose “When does the family document the thunder?” but cheated a little and changed the tense to “When did the family document the thunder?”

I like it – missed the sentance though? and the sentance with “one of the sweetest persons” is hurting my brain, it feels wrong but not sure “one of the sweetest people” is better? interesting take on Necromancy

I chose “When does the family document the thunder” and I’m so pumped that i was able to pull off this, my FIRST flash fiction! I feel like there is a stronger story in here (with 1000 more words!) but I’m so pumped that i was able to pull something off.

I chose “It walked inside the spaceship and then it sat down,” with a couple of tweaks to make it work as a sentence.
