Vainglorious People


I smile, efficiently impersonating someone who’s listening.

“Shut the F$%K up!” I bellow though only condensation wafts through the biting air. Words, no.

So you continue blindly because I let you for now…

In The Scorpio Races, author Maggie Stiefvater writes, "It is the first day of November and so, today, someone will die."  Give us the next thirty-three words of this story, as you imagine it.  Take it wherever you like, but make it original and make it 33 words exactly. 

I have also committed to NaBloPoMo (almost sounds obscene) over at Yeah Write which means writing a blog post every day in the month of November. I did it last year. It was fun and intensely challenging and the result was I actually loved writing even more. So here I am again. Please, please, please visit me!!!
