Can You Tell A Story In…

It’s almost Friday, and that means five-word story time. Your new word this week is:

So can you tell a story in five words using the word LIPSTICK in it somewhere?

Your word last week was HUNGRY. Here are your HUNGRY stories:

Kim Smyth:

I’m hungry now; better eat!

You’re really hungry for knowledge.

Terveen Gill:

Hungry children – hollowed out souls.

Christine Mallaband-Brown:

I was hungry, ate scones!

Hungry for love said werewolf…

He is hungry for chips.

Hungry gull had my sandwich.

Try Thai if you’re hungry.

Cook Books make me hungry.

Hungry in Hungary? Eat goulash!

Ritu:

Why am I always hungry?

Ruth Scribbles:

I’m tired and hungry.

Lance Greenfield:

Brother Mungry is always hungry!

Always’s hungry for Ritu’s baking.

Let hungry révolutionnaires eat cake.

Cross-country running makes me hungry.

A hungry predator hunts best.

Before I even start thinking about LIPSTICK, I just want to add my top tip in response to last week’s prompt:

    The fifth is designed to fire the imaginations of your readers. We’ll find out who just how clean, or otherwise, their thoughts are. Although I suspect that, in many cases, we already know! 😂
