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.
I’m calling this fiction with a side of truth. There are those who have suffered unjustly and then…
RACE CARD
“I never fit in,” she claims through crocodile tears, “because of my color.”
She bemoans her traumatic youth on social media to garner sympathy and hurls wanton accusations.
“You didn’t know me.” She whines.
Did she know me? No way. She was out of my league.
And now she expects me to pity Ms Pretty Popular Prom Queen?
No way.
Dear Rochelle,
You were smart to leave out the “official” race card… Nothing worse than those who whine for the injustices supposedly done to them.
Shalom and lotsa love,
Dale

Here’s to lotsa nonjudgmental hugs. Yeah to that. And … “woundology” is a bit tiresome, indeed.

Na’ama Y’karah,
“Woundology” I like that. It certainly applies here. Ever so tiresome. Thank you.

It is not my term, but one coined by Carolyn Myss (of “Anatomy of The Spirit” and “The Creation of Health”). xx

Dear Keith,
It amazes me that she had the audacity to play the race card. (yep. true story) Thanks for your support of my rant. 😉
Shalom,
