Microfiction Monday


Microfiction is a complete story, based on a photo she provides, but written in 140 characters or fewer. The count includes all spaces and punctuation. Susan at Stony River: A Writing Life hosts this challenging meme. For people like me, who are verbose, this is an irresistible challenge. Fortunately, the photos are provocative. If you'd like to try your hand, visit Susan!

This week's photo:


Even in the 21st century, Alice was certain that every hole contained a white rabbit. This time she’d be very clean, and not late at all.

Brilliant! Clean and on time would be a perfect change for Alice ;). Have a wonderful week :)

I almost went with the rabbit hole, but my brain was blank on what to say! Great job, loved it!

We'll just go ask Alice and see if she is ten feet tall! (Love that song too, and I will be humming that song all morning)
I love your take for this story, what child wouldn't want a white rabbit in every hole they find!
Good job!

Good slant on Alice in Wonderland. Lets hope the White Rabbit isn't put on an extra Spin Cycle.

Oh Wow---what a twist! And the outfit completely fits too LOL

I hope she's careful of the Red Queen and signs that say "Drink Me/Eat Me" this time in!

I love the fact your little girl believed she'd find something good instead of just more work. ;)

This was fun!
