This, That, and the Other

I’m back! I really want to thank Jim Adams for stepping up over the past two months and filling in for me on this prompt during my recuperation. I’m finally feeling energetic enough to pick this back up on my own.

It’s time for my weekly Story Starter prompt. Here’s how it works. Every Tuesday morning (my time), I’m going to give you a “teaser” sentence and your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to build a story (prose or poetry) around that sentence. It doesn’t have to be the first sentence in your story, and you don’t even have to use it in your post at all if you don’t want to. The purpose of the teaser is simply to spark your imagination and to get your storytelling juices flowing.

This week’s Story Starter teaser is:

The warm, golden glow of the streetlight outside her bedroom window gave Marilou the illusion of security.

If you care to write and post a story built from this teaser, be sure to link back to this post and to tag your post with #FSS. I would also encourage you to read and enjoy what your fellow bloggers do with their stories.

And most of all, have fun.
