Run with It

Winner of Prompt 5 – FaceFlash72 /https://www.facebook.com/groups/1363421828089572

72 words or less in 72 hours? Sounded like a fun challenge! I joined the Facebook group FaceFlash72, which posts a twice-monthly prompt in which you have 72 hours to comment on the post with a story of 72 words or less that meets the prompt requirement. The October 2-5th challenge? Write a story composed completely of dialogue.

5 people commented on the post with their stories, and I had the honor of winning this round! Here’s my piece:

Run with It

“And, class, I’m sorry to begin this way, but no utilizing AI to write your response papers.”

“I’m sorry too. I’m the one repeating the course.”

“I want your own thoughts.”

“I’ve had too many concussions to know what to think.”

“You’re not paying tuition for me or AI to tell you what to believe.”

“Aren’t you the prof?”

“A good teacher is a coach. Your brain, the ball. Run with it.”

Thank you to the host of this fun Facebook group! And thank You to God for the privilege of another story “out there” in some small way.
