A word prompt to get your creativity flowing this weekend. How you use the prompt is up to you. Write a piece of flash fiction, a poem, a chapter for your novel…anything you like. Or take the challenge below – there are no prizes – it’s not a competition but rather a fun writing exercise. If you want to share what you come up with, please leave a link to it in Sammi’s Comment Section
Oh what to do? Only 16 words?

My muddled morning, trying to make this recalcitrant painting submit at 4:45 in the blessed A.M.
In Perth it’s 17:45, in London it’s 09:45 and in New Zealand it’s on the cusp of tomorrow. Here in Midwest USA it’s 04:45.
BUENOS MORNING
My eyes snapped open at numpty o’clock. I’m in mid-muddle—a groggy puddle of befuddled disorder.
I’m right there with you Rochelle. Hope you have a great day.

Dear Jo,
Lifting a cup of coffee to another early riser. I just can’t help it. Have a good one yourself. Thanks for stopping by. 😉

Dear Dee,
Sometimes fewer words are more of a challenge, aren’t they? Thank you.

Yes they are and to think the first time I saw one of these it was 99 words. I thought there was no way I could write something with just 99 words. Since then I’ve done it with even less than that!

Love this little short. So much visual, to me, in only 16 words. You are the Wordsmith.

Dear Dale,
I thought I’d replied to you, but apparently my befuddled state got in the way. Thank you. 😀

Dear C.E.
If you mean numpty, it just might’ve come from a Scots friend of mine in France. 😉 Such a great word, it would be a shame not to adopt it. Thank you for muddling by.
