This week’s challenge is short and sweet. I’m looking for a ten-word story, using four of the following words:
- Serendipity
- Illicit
- Dollop
- Hullabaloo
- Shrubbery
- Squelch
- Priministerial
- Gargantuan
I think they’ll be some interesting results!
Last week, I gave you a single word for your challenge: Fear.
Here are the results:
Keith Channing sent in a super story:

Jane Basil always produces something a little different:
Geoff Le Pard says he’s cheating a bit as his dad recited this to him when he was a child. I’ll let him off as it’s so entertaining:
‘The Fear’
It was a dark and stormy night
The roads were dry and clean
And I was walking backwards to the place where I had been
Suddenly I saw a noise
Stood on my face and looked
There is was
It came again
I did the splits
Had 15 fits
And left myself wit
Bharul Chhatbar sent in two brilliant pieces:
FEAR MEANS:
Fully
Emotional
Andante
Random behaviour.
Poem:
A fear is not a fear until you fear
A fear is not a fear until you face
A fear is not a fear until you chase
A fear is not a fear until you overcome
So do not fear,and let the FEAR come near!
