Writing Prompt - What Was That?

Hello, all! Sorry I'm behind on the writing prompt. If there's one thing I've learned in life it's that you have to be flexible. You just never know when something will pop up and smack you in the face.

 
As many of you may already know, my five-year-old came down with the flu this week and ended up in ER. So, instead of going through the writing prompt stories, I've been busy keeping tending him. I will be a week late on posting the winner, but while I'm working out all the little details I'll give you another prompt. Just in case...


"Janie awoke in the middle of the night with the impression that something had just slithered across her foot."



You can either leave a comment here or post a note to me on Facebook - 150-400 words: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Linnettes-Writing-Corner/23510882491?ref=ts#!/pages/Linnettes-Writing-Corner/23510882491

Thanks for your participation and your patience regarding my time delay. I hope to have two stories to post next Friday. Remember, your story is due in by Wednesday at midnight. Cheerio!

"Finding Beth"


A runaway bride-to-be…

A Southern boy-next-door…

A possessive fiancĂ© determined to make her his –

One way or another…

Afraid she's about to make the biggest mistake of her life, Beth Gallagher flees to the Smoky Mountains for refuge. A new friend helps her find the answers she needs, but will she have the courage to follow through with her decision? And if she does, what might it cost her?

Adam Blythe finds himself drawn to Beth – a woman engaged to another. But after being spurned, he refuses to be the other man. Besides, he lives hundreds of miles away, has a chronically ill mother to care for and a family business to run. Yet, Beth’s vulnerability calls to him and the gentleman in him cannot turn away.

Kyle Heinrich always gets his way. When Beth returns home two weeks after her little disappearing act and breaks off their engagement, he isn’t too happy. Even less so when some guy shows up on her doorstep and makes her light up in a way he never could. Not that it really matters, because, one way or another, Beth will be his.

Will Beth learn to trust God again and find the courage to face her fears? And if she does, will it bring the peace and healing she so desperately needs?

Tiffany's Story:

After suffering a lifetime of abuse from every man who should have loved her, Tiffany Nash finds herself longing for a love like her friend, Beth, found.

Afraid to love again after the betrayal and death of his highschool sweetheart, Michael Olivier finds himself drawn to the fiesty woman who can't seem to break down the barriers of her own heart.

And who's the new guy? Wealthy Reece Kemper - Tiffany's new boss and admirer, is out to make an alliance that will convenience them both. Can he truly provide the security Tiffany seeks?

And what of Michael's God? Can she trust a God who demands her all? Can she afford not to?

The Ragged Edge - A Life Changing Experience!

"To You, O LORD, I call; my rock, be not deaf to me, lest, if You be silent to me, I become like those who go down to the pit. Hear the voice of my pleas for mercy, when I cry to You for help, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy sanctuary." Psalm 28:1-2, ESV

"We love because He first loved us." (1 John 4:19, ESV) "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her..." (Ephesians 5:25, ESV)

Humility:

"The eye fixed on Christ sees clearly, succumbing to neither pride nor inferiority, because it is not concerned with the self at all." Andree Seu, World Magazine
