Two pages, TWO pages, TWO PAGES…DONE!!!! Actually a little more. They stink like rafflesia but hey, they are down on paper.
My favorite line? And whatever Gracie didn’t like, she made spitfire sure no one else would like either.

I’m proud of my 547 words today, too! And I absolutely love your favorite line. Lotsa voice there, matey! Argh!
Re: Congrats!
547 words rocks! Very much to be proud of.
Das a good line.
Congrats for moving two pages closer to your goal. 🙂
Ok, gotta ask.
What on earth is ‘rafflesia’?
And congrats on your goal!
“The flower with the world’s largest bloom is the Rafflesia arnoldii. This rare flower is found in the rainforests of Indonesia. It can grow to be 3 feet across and weigh up to 15 pounds! It is a parasitic plant, with no visible leaves, roots, or stem. It attaches itself to a host plant to obtain water and nutrients. When in bloom, the Rafflesia emits a repulsive odor, similar to that of rotting meat. This odor attracts insects that pollinate the plant.”

Oh my.
I was just thinking about breakfast…
but now I think I’ll wait.
Rotting meat? GROSS!!!
“They stink like rafflesia”
What an excellent, concrete analogy, although I’m sure they’re not as bad as you make them out to be. Still, they are written, and that is the important thing.
