Today’s shorty came right off the top of my head, inspired by something silly I said to my husband earlier in the day. And I like it!
Working Title: Banana Talk
1st Sentence: It’s not like you planned it.
Favorite Sentence: And now because you can’t believe you said anything to him at all, much less something so vapid, much less while proffering fruit, much less with such apparent good cheer—someone might describe the voice you used as chirpy—you stand there like a stone, your arm up like Lady Liberty, holding the torch of bright yellow bananas.
