A Perfect Figure

June 23rd, 2010

 

 

It's 100 Word Challenge time again courtesy of Velvet Verbosity.  This weeks word is "bustier." Not bustier, as in Anna Nicole Smith was bustier than Kate Hudson. Oh no, "bustier" as in the French pronunciation.  That bit of fabric designed to give every woman an enviable figure.  Here's my entry..

A Perfect Figure

Her fingers trailed along the racks of silk and barely there chiffon, ribbons and lace. Sighing, she glanced at the life size posters on the wall.  Models with tiny waists and gigantic breasts. They would look fantastic in one of the tiny teddys or babydoll frocks before her. 

Glancing in the mirror, she sucked in her stomach and threw out her chest.  She needed something with a little more structure.  Groaning, she turned away from the ruffles and thrills and saw it, a white bustier with delicate satin ribbon detailing. It was her own hourglass figure made to order!

Wanted: One Muse

May 12th, 2010

I have put up posters, looked all over the neighborhood and called all my neighbors. I've even checked the lost and found boxes at the library, the schools in town and the community center to no avail.  My muse is missing.  

I'm resorting to the want ads.

Wanted: One muse filled with ideas for fun and whimsical writing. Applicants should be witty and smart, funny and able to twist thoughts into stories at the drop of a hat.  Offering to clean my blinds is a plus. 

Maybe it's because I'm busy or maybe my brain has just run dry, but lately I open up my blog, dust off the cobwebs and place my fingers on the keyboard. What follows is…….nothing. That's not exactly true. There are lots of little bits of stuff. A sentence here a sentence there, but nothing of substance.  That's why I'm holding an open casting call for a new muse. I'm hoping something fun will strike soon, shocking me like lightning and lighting this little page up with sparkles of brilliance. I hope I find one soon!
