This is absolutely lovely, @chinyerevivian. What a great story for the holiday season! I could see it being made into a movie. Remember to add your link to a comment on the prompt post.
Great to see you in The Ink Well. We hope this means you'll be writing stories regularly again. We would love to see more from you!
In case you need a refresher on our community, here are some pointers. You can find our community rules at the top of The Ink Well home page. We ask everyone who posts in The Ink Well to read and comment on at least two other writers' work in the community for every story published.
You can also find some introductory information in our recent newsletter. And be sure to visit the resources available in our catalog of fiction writing tips.
Welcome back!
It's good to see you Jayna. It's been too long. I intend to write more. I hope it doesn't run away from me again.
I've been meaning to ask, how short is too short? 50 words, 100 words - I'm free to post them in the community?
