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 link under the title 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! |

| Shaking all over she left his office and entered the empty hall. Freedom! Who knew what was beyond that door, but she knew she could do it! And for one of the few lighter looks at the pic of the day -- welcome my friend from Mumbai! On your mark, go! Those who skate to the far end without stopping for pizza and icecream outside open doors, will be awarded a special prize! |

Sylvia;
I believe she can do it.
Great take like usual.
You didn't go funny or too serious.
Uplifting! have a wonderful week my friend.
She is going to git away. There is light at the end of the Hall. Another good one Sylvia, a wonderful week is wished for you.
Keep putting one foot in front of the other and I'm sure she can too. :O)
Great take, Sylvia. I look forward to this challenge.
I'm rooting for her! She can do it!
Yay, she can do it. Great take, Sylvia. Have a wonderful week.
She can do it!
Ah, great start for a novel, Sylvia! Now I want to know who "he" is and what she is going to do next!
I love her spunk, Sylvia. An excellent MM for the week!
Hope your week goes well.
Sylvia,
I loved the hope that your story provided with this somewhat somber picture! I know she will make it where ever she ends up!

I love new beginnings. And how brave she is. It made me like her.
So positive and joyous! Wonderful to read!
:)
Good one, Sylvia. I haven't been able to come up with anything I like for Microfiction in quite a while, but I like yours!

This has me thinking she has just escaped a painful marriage, or...? Very unique Sylvia!
Uplifting words for such a desolate hallway.
On your mark, go! Those who skate to the far end without stopping for pizza and icecream outside open doors, will be awarded a special prize
I love this. You are the best!
Being held in a place like that would make one crazy indeed!
Excellent take, Slyvia. And welcome, Friend.
..
BTW, to both you and your friend, I hope your characters make it to freedom.
..
a lovely positive take!!
I can almost feel the spring in her step!
What relief and excitement she must feel to be free of such a place. You can almost see her racing to the door to embrace a new existence.
Great take!
Good one! Very effective: if I listen closely, I think I can hear Johnny and the Pirates singing:
When you move in right up close to me
That's when I get the shakes all over me
Quivers down my backbone
I got the shakes down my knee bone
Yeah the tremors in my thigh bone
Shakin' all over!
that was Bravo! at least she got the guts :) .. great MFM!!
I wonder what caused her to make the decision to leave?
The second one made me smile:-)
Inspiring! The endless corridor really leads to a somewhere of significance!
These are very different but loved them both.
Great lightweight micros for such an eerie image :O)
Sylvie, that reminds me of the end of the Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. Great entry!
And I love the hall-skating idea. A very different take on the picture!
No matter how I try to shake it, this still looks like a scene from a horror movie, and your micro fiction piece doesn't help... who's that behind door number 2? Leatherface? Jason? Freddy Krueger?
Hi Sylvia,
I could lose myself for hours on your blog. I see that you love the same things I do, photography, writing, and animals. Please sign on as a follower on my blog. I just signed on to follow you. http://lindaoconnell.blogspot.com/
skates and freedom! good choices. Thanks-
Mumbai wins the uplifting prize today! Yippee!
Your story genuinely told a story, and I wanted more. And Mumbai's was fun!
The MM's find both hope and lightheartedness in the photo, a real challenge that was well met.
My MM: Escape
Ah, freedom from work sounds like a good thing! And I always think that for every Boss who said, "We have to let you go" that person is yelling on the inside, "No, I let YOU people go!"
Have a great week.
I dunno, that floor looks slippery...:-)
So well done, Sylvia...love that there's a light at the end of the tunnel! That's the way to approach life's challenges...:)

I love this! It's so free and uplifting!
I won't surely get a prize for either one of the 2 reasons. I can't skate or I will surely stop for pizza or ice cream.

Loved them both, Sylvia! Nice take on this week's picture. It was a difficult one.
Cheers~
Yes, if she can get out of that place, anything will seem possible! :)
Your friend's is definitely the lightest (& fun!) take I've seen for this microfiction, but I think yours is hopeful and looking up! :>
