Time to get back in the saddle.
Writing prompts help my imagination as well as my writing skills, so time to do a few.
First up is from Julia’s Place
100 Word Challenge for Grown Ups = Week#170 “but she saw”
Resurrection
Faye stopped in mid-stride. It wasn’t possible, but she saw her. She just saw her dead mother in Macy’s. On feet weighted by lead, and legs made of rubber, she retraced her steps. Faye stared at the fall sweaters and leather boots. No one moved among the display. Sun glinted off the glass and there she stood, her mother. Faye gasped, and covered her mouth. She smoothed her skirt and brushed at invisible wrinkles. Her mother matched Faye’s movements. When did this happen? When had she morphed into the old woman reflected in the glass?
Have some fun. Take five and see where 100 words take you.

I was thrilled by your review! Thank you so much. I’ve just sent my first full length sci fi romance out for comments, so please wish me luck! Writing that length feels very different to writing the short stories.

I like this, Jean. I’ve been dong this increasingly the last couple of years – I look in the mirror and my mother looks back. But as I loved her to bits and she’s sadly gone from us now, that’s no bad thing.

My little ditty didn’t imply lack of love, at least I didn’t mean for it to. But to show the passage of time. Seems we all eventually morph into our parents.

Hi Jean, your piece was really positive. I loved it. And to be honest, if you were lucky with how you got on with your parents, as I was, it’s a privilege to be reminded of them. X
