Can You Tell A Story In…

It’s Thursday, so you must be ready for a new story challenge. Here you go:

Can you tell a story in 13 words? You must use the following words somewhere in the story:

  • STRING
  • ELEPHANT
  • MOUNTAIN

Last week’s prompt was to tell a story in 10 words using the following two words in it somewhere:

  • ORANGE
  • THERAPIST

Here are your entertaining stories:

Ritu:

Can’t concentrate. The therapist’s face is too orange. Bad tan!

Trent’s World:

Not being political, if Orange wins, I’ll need a therapist!

Lance Greenfield:

The giant orange fired his best therapist, resulting in disaster.

My psychotherapist guided me through red, orange, yellow, green . . . STOP!

Christine Mallaband-Brown:

Here is your “orange” therapist…

It’s Tonal Drump, makeup guru..

Chris Page:

Exposure to Agent Orange was why he saw a therapist.

Treehugger:

My therapist went wild with tanning spray. Result: Orange addiction.

Sharron P:

Orange Therapy – you must have heard? It’s the latest craze.

  2. Here comes Hannibal over the mountain at the head of string of elephants.

    It needed to be 16 words so I could have put “Look out Rome!” at the end… Oh well, I guess everyone knows the story without it.
