Writing Prompt Friday (what if)

writingpromptfridaycoffee

Hello and welcome back to Writing Prompt Friday! I love changes in seasons, especially if that season is fall or winter. Those are my favorites. Fall and winter signal the holidays, which are my annual Olympic-esque seasons of joy and activity. And I finally know what to wear everyday: layers. Comfy, boofy, soft layers. That I can curl up under my desk for a nap during lunch and passers by can’t recognize me…except for my nameplate. Clearly this plan has a flaw.

Now, on to this week’s prompt…

What if you were kidnapped by alien clowns on your way to the dry cleaners?
