MicroFiction Monday

Susan at Stony River Farm hosts Microfiction Monday. She posts a picture and you compose a story in 140 characters. You can click on the icon to get further instructions. To help you along she has posted a wonderful link that counts your characters for you! How great is that! You can get the counter at Design 215.

This meme is easy and it's fun! Thanks, Susan for hosting.

And here's the picture for the day!

She knew they were watching, waiting for her answer. It wasn't the answer they
wanted. Soon they would seal her in the tomb they had chosen.


My friend from India has joined me again today. Here's hers!

Everytime I go by with the bricks, she says, "A jug of wine, a loaf of bread", and THOU! she hits out with a spear through the window....

Maybe her captors will be so amazed at how brave she is that they will let her go!
Really good take this my friend.
Hope you have a great week ahead.

Maybe Sir Lancelot will come charging up on his white steed in the nick of time, lance the king a lot, and whisk away his princess to safety.

Diane said...

Hopefully the truth will set her free.... :O)

Wow, Sylvia--a touch of the dark and macabre this week. Well done! (I'm with Pat, hoping for the arrival of Sir-lance-a-lot!)

Have a great week--nice to see some fall sunshine in our neck of the woods, isn't it?

I think there's quite a wall developing between them :-)
Nice one.

Ooh, Anthony, pun pun pun!!
Sylvia, will you ever tell us the answer?

I am sure she will be rescued in time.

Poor girl! But maybe there's still a way out? I hope so. Nice MM

Those demanding people OUT THERE--and what they do! Great one, Sylvia.

Rinkly Rimes said...

At least her conscience will be clear. I'd want more than that though!

Sylvia,
She is giving up much too soon! Though she is so brave to just stand there so cool, calm and collected!

She is very brave to stick to her convictions. Excellent MM.

Great story. The artwork compliments it.

It's so much fun to see all the different takes on the same photo. Great job, Sylvia! I would like a hero to come and save her now.

EG CameraGirl said...

I do hope someone arrives soon on his white horse!

Unknown said...

Been a while here.. I'm glad I'm back..

MorningAJ said...

I hope I'd be that calm if someone was bricking me in because they disagreed with me!

You've got to love a woman with some integrity... keeping secrets at the expense of her life.

Suz said...

oh I love this
a daring choice indeed

G-Man said...

I enjoyed them BOTH...G

Oh--yours is sad, Sylvia, but I do like it. And I like the one your friend wrote, too.
Don't you just love the pictures that Susan chooses for us?
Have a great week. Cheers!

You know, I think if I were the Princess, I'd be sticking the pitchfork in a couple of them! LOL!

septembermom said...

Both are terrific! Hope the princess is saved :)

Rigel said...

Forget the prince and his white horse -- she should karate chop her way out of there while she can! Haha. Loved your take and your friend's.

I like a strong woman who knows her mind! :O)

hope said...

Guess it's tough to wear a crown. ;)

Both are great. Hopefully she'll figure out how to escape :-)

Susan at Stony River said...

I love the quiet strength of your character -- and I love the spear-hurling spirit in your friend's!

Geez, I didn't even notice there were people outside the window until I saw it this big. LOL. But I love both of your stories! Strong women.

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
