FLASH FICTION FOR ASPIRING WRITERS – JULY, 2015
TITLE: The Snotty Muse
WORD COUNT: 165 words
It was a scene straight out of a fairy tale: the green foliage, the pink flowers, and the water falls – oh the waterfalls! It was all so charming, fluttering lightly in the cool spring breeze. The cutest little adjoining bridge allows the tourist to experience the breathtaking view closer.
Yes, closer. Ever closer.
The sunlight reflecting off of the rushing water and the droplets on the greenery sparkles like diamonds.
Yes, blind them. You like diamonds, eh. Greedy little cunts.
The roar of the water hitting the rocks as the drop ends drowns out the excited conversations.
I bet it’s nothing worth hearing anyways. Some old bags talking about what a good idea it was to—
“Oh would you shut up!” I say in exasperation.
Well what’s got your panty in a knot?
“You’re never there when I need you and when you are around, you’re even more useless!”
Hmph. Ungrateful brat.
“The nerve!” I fumed, striking viciously at my keyboard as I resumed writing.
♦THE END♦
A/N:
Eh…well….this started out to be something about a mermaid, perhaps, looking at a scenery she randomly happened across after having gotten caught up in a tsunami or something…. somewhere along the lines it became like this instead… Oh well…
Also as some of you may know (if you read my about me) and if you don’t know, now you will… I’m somewhat of an otaku. So when I go to type ‘fairytale’ I typed Fairytail instead… Mashima sensei look what you’ve done.

This was an excellent take on this image. Enjoyed your take and I do like the notion of the argument with your muse as you write. Well done.

I know that argument so well! Take care you don’t strike your keyboard so hard you put in permanently out of action! A great take on the prompt. Millie
