Weekly Challenge #2 – Five Minutes Late

4307558

Welcome to the second Weekly Challenge, where I post a topic and then challenge you to come up with a 100 word story based on that topic.
The topic is: five minutes late.
You have until midnight on Friday the 28th to email me your story.
It would be preferred that you attach your own recording of the story, but if I have the time I will record and include all of the contributed stories in a single collection, which will be posted next Saturday.
If this takes off and there’s a healthy amount of participation, I may go ahead with my plans to create 100 Words Or Les Nessman 2.0. (With weekly themes instead of daily themes to cut down on burnout and attrition.)
Good luck, and feel free to e-mail me with any questions you have.


Midnight came, and midnight went. Time’s up!
There were 8 stories this week. Go ahead and listen to the stories (click on the grammy-o-phone icon there on the left side of this entry) and vote for your favorite:
