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.
To quote Chief Dan, “Sometimes the magic works and sometimes it doesn’t.” 😉
WORD COUNT THIRTY-TWO
A legion of words
Stomps through my mind
Some march straight ahead
Others veer off
Right
Careening left.
I try to catch them
Make them fit together.
Twenty-eight down
Four to go.
Rochelle Wisoff-Fields-Addicted to Purple 
A situation I know only too well. Goato the right, goato the left!

Oy, am I out of it this week. Scheduled FF to post tomorrow…thanks to my buddy Sandra in the UK I was able to catch up there. And here I am missing comments from Sunday. At any rate…it’s more like herding cats right now. 😉 Glad you related to my words and enjoyed my goats. 😀
Shalom,

Dear Dora,
Sorry for the tardiness of my reply. It seems to be the way it’s going these days. Too many things going on at once. 😉 Thank you so much for your sweet comments re my words and goats. 😀

Like the perfect goat herder you let them follow their will and still gently stir them to where you want them to go. These words. Love the picture, too. 🙂

Thanks so much for this fascinating post. Although I had heard about New York’s Jewish delicatessens, and am familiar with that unforgettable scene from “When Harry Met Sally”, I’ve never heard of Katz before or been to New York. Watching the video was a real treat, especially after spending four months in lockdown and I haven’t even been able to get down to Sydney in that time. I felt like I was in New York.
I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of meat in the sandwich, but it certainly does look delicious and it’s popularity speaks for itself.
Hope you have a good week and I’m pleased I’ve managed another post this week. I’m trying to get back into the fiction writing again.
Best wishes,
Rowena
