One Voice, Many Worlds

A ripple in the water is sometimes all that is needed to signal catastrophic change. ONE ripple can make all the difference between existence and evolution.

Last Friday's 55

The theme for the past week was 'red' according to Anna from Sepia Mutiny, in accordance with World AIDS Day on December 1st.

She was contemplating existence when the ashtray crashed into a million little splinters on her thigh. “How ironic” she thought, as she felt a thousand pinpricks as the invisible shards embedded themselves in her skin. The microscopic droplets of red blotted the goosebumps as she watched, fascinated.
More pieces of glass for her fragmented spirit.


A slightly more refined version to ease the awkwardness of the 'as's:

She was contemplating existence when the ashtray crashed into a million splinters on her thigh. “How ironic” she thought, feeling a thousand pinpricks as the invisible shards embedded themselves in her skin like an army. The microscopic droplets of red blotted the goosebumps as she watched, fascinated.
More pieces of glass for her fragmented spirit.

I think all authors (which I'm certainly not) write best about what they know best - the world they inhabit physically or mentally. I'm not sure if all writing is even semi-autobiographical though - people would be leading pretty strange lives if it was!
