Challenge
My fellow prosers, inspiration is contagious so let's contaminate each others ink. Here's how it will go. I will kick it off by tagging a proser to write and then in turn she will tag another proser to do the same. The "tagger" would assign a prompt, a topic, word/words or anything at all that would inspire the "tagged" to write about. It could be anything, any form. Anyone can join at anytime even if you did not get tagged. As long as you tag someone to continue the challenge. Have fun Prosers!
The Victim
"He always makes me do the dirty work!” I lamented, selecting a sharp knife from the wooden block.
I stoically rolled the body over, making the first cut, severing the head from the torso with a slashing horizontal line. Standing back to admire my work, I watched in fascination as blood trickled down on the cutting table. Dipping my finger into the blood, I was surprised to discover it felt cold to my touch. Next, I made a long cut, reached in and removed the guts. As I peeled back the skin, my husband sauntered into the room.
“Why am I always the one who cleans your fish?” I bemoaned.
