I belong to several different online groups on Facebook, the majority of which qualify as reading and writing groups. Mostly, I sit back and observe the comings and goings—from tips to improve the craft to advice regarding traditional vs. indie publishing, etc. However, one activity I regularly participate in includes submitting the first line of a story or poem based on a weekly writing prompt. Oftentimes, I begin my writing sessions by setting a timer for 10-15 minutes and spending that narrow window drafting my contribution to the “challenge.” And, to ratchet up the excitement, I limit myself to 25 words—no more and no less. This keeps me in the mindset to write tight, concise. I thought it’d be fun to try a prompt on my blog for anyone who would like to play along. Share your response(s) in the comments below (and I will, too).
Imagine your life is now a best-selling book. In 100 words or less, write the summary for the back cover.

“The Someday of Her Dreams” (working title)
Middle-aged wife and mother Chrissy has always dreamed about a happily-ever-after Someday, but she’s long past believing in fairytales. Until one night, Chrissy’s fairy godmother appears and waves a magic wand, granting her wish. With a twist. This alternate reality looks nothing like her fairytale. Chrissy soon discovers that denying her dreams has revised her happily-ever-after. And not in a good way. Now Chrissy must find the courage—and her own magic within—to fight for her dreams before it’s too late. But that means rewriting her fate like Someday depends on it. Because it does.
