In April, Elephant's Child is supplying the prompts for Words for Wednesday.
Word for Wednesday is a challenge that was started a long time ago. Now it has turned into a movable event with Elephant's Child as our coordinator; and the Words provided by a number of people.
The
general idea of this challenge is to make us write. Poems, stories,
subtitles, tales, jokes, haiku, crosswords, puns, ... you're the boss.
Use all Words, some Words, one Word, or even none of them if that makes your
creative juices flow. Anything goes, only please nothing rude or vulgar.
It is also a challenge, where the old saying "
The more the merrier" holds true. So
Please,
remember to follow the links, go back and read other peoples'
stories. And please leave a comment after reading. Challenges like this
one thrives on interaction, feedback and encouragement. And we ALL need
encouragement. - - A - - B - - C - -

I succeeded in adding yet another chapter to Sue and Bill's strange adventure. Mostly stalling, but a bit of progress is happening. As usual I use the words in the order they were given. Bill's gentle hands danced over the keyboard, he and his computer were almost like an organic unit to Sue. Maybe their methods were not always up to the moral standards set my their superior, but they kept themselves in good odour by bringing results -- every time.
Sue felt moisture collecting in her eyes. She loved that scoundrel, even after 20 years. They had solved many improbable and strange riddles together, mostly by following their noes - - or those of the ghost dogs.
Sue left Bill to his typing, and wandered to the car. The car was a new model, electric, and practically noiseless. In a very short time she parked outside the dog handler's house.
Sue rang the bell, and waited. It was the dog handler's wife who answered the bell. Sue asked if they could have Eryn, their old dog, back. The training of her pups had been fun, but it was only a parenthetic affair in their work. When Eryn, had become pregnant this was where it had gone to have her pups. Now the pups had been trained, Eryn was back to normal, fit for fight and eager to pull on her working gloves once more. Sue had high hopes of solving the riddle of Fred Thompson, the unknowing seventh son, plagued by ghosts.
This year I choose an easy way out. Each day I'm going to solve the Wordle of the day, using as starter a word beginning with the letter of
the day. I post every day at 6 pm. my time (GMT +2. Dang you DST!)
