 DAY 3331 September 18, 2021 Prompt: Create a story using these words in your entry: Serious, curious, notorious, screams, unreasonable and seasonable. Have fun creating a short story. I read recently that the market for 100 word story is on the increase. This is great practice for us all. Asner was notorious for knocking knick-knacks off shelves. He would jump onto a shelf and knock Human Mom's strange bobbledy-head thingies onto the floor. Why? Because it was fun and it got Human Mom's attention. His passion started the day he had first been curious about HMs treasures. She had been putting out her seasonal ones that day: witches, skeletons, pumpkins, and ghosts. Asner had heard screams coming from the highest shelf so he had jumped up there to check it out when HM had gone into another room. When he neared a ghost, he heard another scream and the thing lit up. It nearly scared him right out of his fur! He knew what he must do. He pawed at the ghost and its head started moving too. He realized he had to get serious if he wanted to protect HM and the house from these plastic devils. He pawed at it harder this time, swiping the thing onto the floor. There was a small crash. Human Mom came back into the room asking, "What's going on in here?" That's when she saw the bobbedly-head ghost on the floor and Asner on the shelf. He beamed at her with pride. After all, he had just single-pawedly saved her from the evil little weird things. But HM wasn't so happy. She scooped him up and put him out in the cat yard. Asner yowled at the door to get let back inside but HM was being unreasonable and just ignored his pleas. After that, Asner tried again and again to save everyone from the weird things HM seemed to love. Every time, Human Mom would scoop him up in her arms and put him in the cat yard. So Asner decided that anytime he wanted to go outside, he would find one of HM's knick-knack shelves and knock one of the creepy things right off. And it worked, so he has continued to do it ever since.   Word Count: 375 |
