You think the name is weird, don’t you? Its simple, I am giving you a scene for which you have to say “and then…” and tell me what happened… Here’s the scene on which you have to build on an episode… It’s fun, give it a shot coz you could be the winner, each contestant can send up to 3 entries and there are exciting prizes up for grabs 😀
Ok now before you get started check out the rules for the contest you’ll also see some hints…
So without further ado here’s the scene…
Image courtsey Google
Liz ran like she was being chased by a cheetah from the check-in point to the boarding gate to catch her flight from Hong Kong to Sydney, and her high healed Jimmy Choo stilettoes didn’t help. Business class she thought ironically to herself clumsily running with her macbook close to her chest and a carry-over Louis Vuitton purse clinging on her shoulder. The past few months had been erratic – late night calls, working weekends, high pressure presentations, the stress was all consuming and she had almost lost track of time but that’s the cost you pay to be the youngest director with a multinational entertainment giant. Today she was determined she would run and get there for she deserved this vacation she had earned it, though her 30yr old un-exercised body was resisting.
She finally reached the gate and was escorted to the airplane. She was the last one to board and after bumping into a stewardess dropping her LV once and almost tripping into the lap of an old but handsome man she finally reached her seat. She glanced at the man sitting just behind her – engrossed in the latest issue of Autocar, Bose head-phones plugged in, he was in his own sweet world, her heart skipped a beat and she froze – all the old memories came rushing in.

It was dad who showed me that weight loss post on your blog, which made me check out the rest of it.. And its nice 🙂 Keep it up!
Thnx Ashish, welcome to my blog 🙂 so happy you liked it 😀
Yep kaka messaged me on FB after he read that 😀 you should also send me a write up 😛 I was asking Ashu to write one and it’s like punishment for him hehehaha (evil laughter)
Ohh…an another story writing contest 🙂 🙂 Am already excited to write mine 🙂
Hey Anu, welcome to my blog 🙂
Yay!! Scribble it up and shoot it at me 😀
Hey..when does voting start?
There are a couple more write-ups that i will publish today and will give a break for 2 days for people to read and decide and i will publish the voting details within this time then give 3 days for voting 🙂
Ruchi, 3 days for voting seems too long. 1 or 2 days sounds better.
ok so let’s keep it 2 days then 🙂 also i’m thinking of starting the voting now since i think everyone has already read all the stories – only the last story has been published today and i guess peeps can read that quickly 😀
