You know what I haven't seen in a while?
Dec. 11th, 2007 02:31 pmOne of those round-robin stories. I'm sure people write them still, but it's been a while since I've seen one. So, I'm starting one. Think of it as a creative enterprise, or a meme, or whatever. But I'd like to see what happens to it, so here it goes!
The rules: Here is some fiction. Add to the fiction in comments, then post the whole thing to your LJ and get more comments. If you could link me to your post, I'd be obliged.
The story:
She woke up from her nap with a languid stretch, sprawling across the bed as she woke her muscles. Feeling refreshed and mobile, she blinked open her eyes and examined the room. It was darker than when she'd fallen asleep, and the room was only lit with a single candle. A dark shape filled the chair by the desk, though the person sitting there was obviously not paying any attention to the stacks of paper in front of them.
She sat up slowly, keeping her gaze fixed on the form across the room she still couldn't identify. It could have been one of any number of people; the room wasn't exactly private. Some were more likely than others, but the fact that a person had entered the room while she slept made her uneasy.
