Memory is this week’s Sometime Stellar Six Word Story Challengee prompt, and I got carried away. I couldn’t just leave it at one so here are several that came to mind: My mind went blank with fear. Is my memory gone, she questioned? Why do I not remember…anything? ‘I did it!’ But she didn’t. (I entered… Continue reading Six Word Story Challenge–Memory
