100 Words on Saturday - Write Tribe - The Duke's Vial

100 Words on Saturday - Write Tribe

#100WordsonSaturday 22 August 2015
How does this work?
  1. You write a 100 words in response to our prompt/or on any subject and post it on your blog. Remember to include a link back to this post.
  2. Then add the link to our linky below.
  3. Visit and comment on at least two or as many linked posts as you can.
  4. The linky will stay open until the following Friday.
  5. You can grab the 100 Words on Saturday badge here.
You'll have to go to the "100 Words" hub on WriteTribe to see the pictorial prompt for today.  My computer is not letting me upload the picture. :(

Anyway, here's my "100 Words":

Elizabeth had been looking forward to the ball since she received the invitation.  Wanting to shine and sparkle beyond the other young ladies in attendance, she had had her dressmaker add sequins and Swarovski crystals to the original design.  The brother of Elizabeth's rival asked her to dance, and, not wanting to be rude, she accepted.  The cad stepped on her gown, loosening a key thread holding the baubles on, and they scattered across most of the room.  The duke came off the dais, handed Elizabeth a small stoppered vial, and they picked up the shiny pieces of decoration together.

  1. I must be having major senior moments today. Not only did I write to the wrong prompt, I can't find the comment section on the hub post to warn folks. Oh well. Maybe I should've taken that nap after all, eh? :p
