Paranoid (75)


Howling could be heard in the underground shelter; the damage would be great if they left. The air was growing thin; dizziness was overwhelming her. The sounds were getting closer, death was imminent. They had told her she was paranoid. How wrong they had been.


What is making the howling sound? Who is in the shelter with her? Who told her she was paranoid? Is she paranoid or is the threat real?

The word is paranoid, the limit was 75 words. This post comes in at a mere 45 words; clicking the link will take you to M3 and the rules.

Tornado. Definitely, I see a tornado. She is going to be the only survivor and going to stand over the rubble shaking her fist screaming, "I told you so!!!"

Bwahahaha.

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.
