100 Words – Week 316
2013
My dear word-nerdlings, here we are. Another week, another challenge! Some of you may have noticed I was working my way through a funk these last few weeks (though I wonder if y’all read these posts and don’t just skip on down to the prompt ;D). I don’t want to jinx anything, but the weekend was good, and today was good.
By “good”, I mean some of the challenges backed off, and others were worked through.
Our book club wrapped up our last book, and since we haven’t nailed down what we’re reading next I’m plowing through a small stack of business books. Just starting The Leader’s Way, by The Dalai Lama and Laurens Van Den Muyzenberg. You wouldn’t have guessed it, but the word my finger landed on from this book is:
Crisis
This is almost too easy to work into a vignette, but don’t let yourself off the hook. Push your creative edge, show don’t tell, and strive for elegance!

crisis, eh? Hmmmm. Will have to see what I can come up with having to do with crisis. It might help that I work in that world . . . or it might not help at all.
Hey there!!!

I don’t envy you your work Barbara, I really don’t. But I’m also glad that someone like you has taken that work on.
I went for a crisis of faith. Precipitated by the zombie apocalypse, of course.
