I Can Write A 10 Word Story. Right?

The 10 word story was certainly a challenge

I was tagged in this challenge by Deb Fiore she called me out (in the nicest way) in How to Get Out of the Way of Your Stress. I admit to being intrigued, I can labour a point on occasion, so how would this work? The issue, I feel exposed by a lack of context. I tend to explain the problem, talk about my actions, and have a conclusion. I'm not sure how to do that in 10 words.

I suppose it wouldn’t be much of a challenge if it was easy. I procrastinated, which I do when I don’t believe in myself or my ability. I am glad in a way as I found 3 writers I didn’t know. Had the opportunity to read their take on the challenge, which was helpful. Anyway, I have procrastinated enough……..

Learning true love comes from within unchained her heart forever.

Vulnerability is the true measure of your strength and heart.

She laughed, dancing in the rain because she finally could.

The people I would have tagged have been tagged already. I decided to introduce some great examples of the challenge I found when I was procrastinating. Hope you enjoy them as much as I did. Thanks to Ellie Jacobson for the original prompt. Deb Fiore for, as usual, having more faith in my abilities as a writer than I do :)

Robin Christine Honigsberg I loved this because she did loads; hats off to you Robin. They are all thought-provoking and many would have made great first lines of a story.

Jenine Bsharah Baines The first 10 word sentence I read floored me and I was not ready for it either. Powerful.

Jonathon Sawyer Quite the take on the challenge each one read like the first line in a story I would have liked to have read. Especially number 4.
