Eventually Dawn


This week’s assignment will require the fewest number of words ever: we want you to write a story – your choice of topic – as a tweet.


Soft pastels, muted further by early morning fog, silhouette sleepy pines with the promise of light.
The loneliest night is finally over.

  1. Nicely done. Evocative and dare I say? Poetic?

  2. Definitely some poetry coming through. It floats softly through as you speak the words, like a gentle wind.

  5. Between the post and the background of the site I don't know whether to have a comforting cup of tea or kill myself. Either way, many emotions elicited and nicely done!

  13. Painted a picture with words. I can look out my window and see the scene surely as if I were there.

  16. Peaceful, pretty, but yet sad and questionable. Makes you hope things are going to work out right.
