This week’s edition will be on (drumroll please)…Chase Holfelder’s cover of Every Breath You Take (originally by The Police).Feel free to base responses of anything to do with the song, I always enjoy any different takes!
Now this is a take on a song I knew previously as just the Police original version!
I know if you listen to the lyrics, they are kinda creepy, but Sting singing it made much more of a romantic impression… Chase Holfelder’s version, though very good, had me looking behind my shoulder.. so unsettling!!!
Inspiring, in all sorts of ways!!
I know you don’t want me to know, but I do.
Ever since we split up, you’ve avoided me, blocked me on all social media, not returned my messages or any of my phone calls.
But I still know.
It’s Brett, isn’t it?
I know you said he had nothing to do with it, but I’m not so sure now.
I saw you, leaving his place the other morning at 7 am… after arriving at 10.43 pm the night before…
Ok, yes, hands up, I‘ve been following you. Every breath you take, every move you make, I’ll be watching you.
Matt The Book Blogger is back with his prompt for this week’s Flash Fiction Foray, or #FFF.
This week’s edition will be on (drumroll please)…Fall Out Boy’s new song Young and Menace. This is quite a different song from the last few weeks; but I couldn’t help loving the bass drop – make sure to turn up the volume… Feel free to base responses of anything to do with the song, I always enjoy any different takes!
Another song I hadn’t heard before. Eerie and the video was a strange one!!! Oh well, here’s what I came up with!
Sometimes I wonder if I was actually born into this family, or if there was a mix up at the hospital…
I look at you all, with your Dresden doll looks, all blonde hair and fair skin, and then check myself in the mirror.
My naturally sun-kissed skin, and curly chocolate brown locks are a race apart from you.
You like bland food, I want something with a kick.
You listen to Pop, all I want is Gangsta Rap coursing through my earphones…
Then I remember Grandpa… He was the same, wasn’t he? A bit of a misfit, like me.
Your challenge is to write your story using the weekly theme/prompt and write it in just 52 words…. EXACTLY, no more, no less.
This week, include the following in your story:
“The bitch was right.”
Here goes!
She sniggered.
“Erm, Jane, you might want to lose that loo roll stuck to your shoe!”
Silly cow, always trying to show me up.
Not this time.
I walked into the meeting room and smiled at the board of directors.
They looked at me.
I looked down
Damn, the bitch was right!
This week’s edition will be on (drumroll please)…Kodaline’s Everything Works Out in the End. Feel free to base responses of anything to do with the song, I always enjoy any different takes!
It’s a song I hadn’t heard before, but here’s my take!
100 words of crazy, as usual!
Meet Bob, my fiancé.
And that’s Jill, my Maid of Honour.
Yes they are walking up the aisle.
Together.
Rewind to three hours ago.
I was having a breakdown.
It had dawned on me that it was Jim I loved, not Bob.
Jim, the Best Man.
Jill’s boyfriend.
Confused?
So was I!
And I was meant to be getting married TODAY!
Then Bob went all gooey eyed looking at Jill.
And she looked at him the same.
So we swapped places today.
Jim squeezed my hand.
Everything works out in the end, they say … I guess they were right.
Oh Sacha, you evil task master!!!! What have you got us doing this week??
Your challenge is to write your story using the weekly theme/prompt and write it in just 52 words…. EXACTLY, no more, no less.
Backwards.
BUT, in addition to that, I want you to write your story backwards…!
Seriously??!!
Ok, so I wasn’t sure, word for word backwards? Sentences backwards? Reflected backwards???
Here’s what I came up with, in several forms! And all 52 words!!!!!
Backwards sentences…
The discussion about changing her surname was always going to happen, but there was no way she was going from Portia Peters to bloody Portia Carr!!!!!
