Round 11 opens May 4.

A writing prompt will be posted then. Based on the prompt, write a story that can be read aloud in three minutes or less (max 600 words).

Entries are usually open only for a week. More info can be found at the website: www.npr.org/threeminutefiction. (Please note, the information won't be updated until the prompt is posted, but the rules should be similar from contest to contest.)

smear -> smirk


You changed two letters, CK.

Back to smear...

Smear -> Bears


Or you could have gone back to FRAME, which I posted before CK started smirking.

Oh well...onward and upward!





You are correct, I apologise.

Sorry.

Shady -> Daisy



No need to apologize; I was just funnin' ya.

daisy --> ideas

Me, I done got a grammar question.

Bri (354) brought up an item from my 'Cold Beer and Hot Fries' story. Early on, I describe the Hilltop Café interior as being "neon lighted." (might have stuck a hyphen in there) He suggested that "neon lit" would be the correct wording.

Any sage wisdom, counsel and/or advice would be appreciated.



Either is correct. "Lighted" is most common in American English, so I would recommend staying with that since the story is clearly American.
