Six-Sentence Story #1 (with prompt word)

Six-Sentence Story banner featuring a vintage quill and ink bottle above the title on a parchment-style background with the website ofstardustandthebeasts.com.

It seems I had forgotten how the weekly six-sentence story prompts work… Last week, I thought I was late for the blog hop and ended up posting with the same prompt word as this time. The story itself can be found here.

The weekly writing challenge is hosted by GirlieOnTheEdge, and you can find links to other participants’ work through the link-up.

Rules of the hop:
Write 6 sentences. No more. No less.
Use the current week’s prompt word.
The link is live from Wednesday at 6:00 PM until late Saturday night.
Spread the word and support fellow writers!

PROMPT WORD: SWING

Posting last week’s mix-up to this weeks challenge felt like cheating myself on this journey back to writing weekly again, so I cooked up something new instead.

Six-Sentence Story - Confession

If I am being completely and unapologetically truthful, I think I would prefer to be a cat.

Specifically, I have grown tired of this human life, and I think being yours would suit me better.

The way I picture it: dim lights, soft music, and a glass of bourbon as I have curled myself up in your lap, purring as your hand softly moves through my fur.

Did you know that the purring of a cat is said to have healing properties?

Yeah, well, it may just be that I like scratches on my head, and would love to snuggle closer to your chest and, umm...

It would also be really fun to break a glass—just swing it down from the table onto the floor (for shits and giggles, you know).
