So this wouldn’t have happened if in_the_blue hadn’t done her writing challenge and graciously offered an example of how to work with story memories. So here goes.
A dribble-drabble (150 words) for 100 Word Stories.
So when I first got this prompt, I knew this was the story I wanted to write. It just took a few tries to get it right. Enough anyway.
In “Of Memory and Making,” Connor makes the decision to not share memory with his significant other. The choice seemed so significant to me and in_the_blue mentioned it. Here I wanted to show the healthy relationship established and continuing to develop between another couple whose memories have affected them just as deeply, if not more so. Here is a woman who has more self-control than anyone I have ever met. And there is a reason why.
So I was reading too much in Poetry Magazine and this first line came into my mind—then kept going.
I thought it might be fun to make them run across each other small, but I didn’t want them to recognize each other later, so new bit of canon: the girl was homeschooled. :grins:
She has never been beautiful. Ashen has never experienced being beautiful—until tonight.
