She changes her face into a glow as I extend my hand.

He could picture the outcome as he sounded the horn.
She graciously engages my offered frame.

He knew she was expecting to be picked up.
She transforms my leads into beautiful motions.

He slowed as she lifted her shopping bags, no rush, he thought.

I’m still operating on reduced power, but wanted to participate in this blogging challenge originated by Frank over at A Frank Angle.
Frank’s challenge is to write a sentence to follow on from a first sentence written by Frank, and then all combinations make up a story. I had to amend the context of Frank’s words just a little so that they would work with my ideas. I think it works.
KEY – This is to ensure that the above story does make (at least a little) sense.
This colour indicates Frank’s original sentence.
This colour is my amended version of Frank’s sentence.
This colour is my reaction to the previous sentence.
It was fun to write, although it highlights a particular devilish side of humanity that tends to crop up from time to time… although when it happens when I’m driving, it is entirely by accident. Honest!!! (Not that I have ever driven a truck, I must add!)
Visit Frank’s site for more entries to his challenge… or have a go for yourself. Further details are on his site.
