Trifextra Weekend Challenge; Week Fifty-sevenFor the weekend challenge we're asking for exactly thirty-three words written in first person narrative. Have fun with it and we'll meet you back here on 3/3! -
I'm trying something a little...well, crazy here this week. I have been writing and linking up to several prompts every week. I've combined prompts and I've written separate stories to the individual prompts. This week my goal is to write one story, and split it into parts. Each part fitting one of the prompts I use. It's my hope that each part stands alone, yet makes one understandable tale all together.
Part one is here Part two is here and Part three is here
I didn't realize how much a princess has to do.
Mediate disputes.
Attend parties, host dinners.
And all the while, I'm expected to look like a princess!
I miss being a shepherd's daughter.
Digging the daily serial!
ReplyDelete:) hope she has some ladies in waiting to help her look like a princess. :)
ReplyDeleteI like this,well written:-)And can understand her feeling nostalgic-not so easy to transcend the gulf between two entirely opposite social strata.
ReplyDeleteI'll always take the shepherd's road!
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed the tale of these two over the last few weeks. Would LOVE to see the idea expanded outside of the lines of the writing prompts!
ReplyDeleteThe grass isn't always greener on the other side, that is one of life's great truisms. Nice job on this week's prompt.
ReplyDeleteHa! Great continuation of the story.
ReplyDeleteNice work on all 3 counts.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Tough life being a princess - I'd stick with shepherd's daughter, I think!
ReplyDeletePrincess would definitely be one of those jobs that look better on paper. The shepherd's daughter life for me too!
ReplyDeleteFun little piece!
I love the idea of a bored/overwhelmed princess! (:
ReplyDeleteI liked this one a lot. The grass is not always greener.
ReplyDeleteCareful what you wish for!
ReplyDeleteWhat a dilemma! Be happy with what you have, darn it!
