Funny that we both started with "Don't turn around!" Now, maybe I feel inclined to start with "uses for boys"! We'll see. I am trying to switch up the prompts from so many visual ones, not that they aren't fun. I'm finding it a little more challenging to *choose* the prompt in the first place. But when people have suggested them to me, I don't always get a ready story idea. Perhaps I will try that again as well though - solicit prompts on FB.Margaret S.

Jennifer cried.<br /><br />Three feet from the cafeteria trays, Mica froze. "What?" she asked.<br /><br />"I mean, um, yeah, as you were."<br /><br />Mica turned, slowly, to see Jennifer leaning against one of the tables, in an overly deliberate casual pose. "What _are_ you on about?"<br /><br />Jennifer was blushing!<br /><br />"Seriously, Jen," Mica said, "what was that about?" Although with the blush plus Jennifer's furtive glances at the cafeteria exit, she could guess. Jennifer usually did not have many uses for boys, but there was that new one--tall, handsome, and exotically from Africa. Yeah, he had definitely stolen her friend's heart.<br /> <br /> <br />Annenoreply@blogger.com
