Friday Fictioneer's
…brought to you by: Rochelle
Wisoff . Once a week a photo is submitted for inspiration and a group of
writers accept the challenge of writing a 100 word story about it. The
following picture was provided to us by David Stewart ©.

Reaching~
"My math instructor told me that anything was possible,
I just had to reach for it and never give up" Kyle said.
Stacy continued to sculpt his form while he reached for
tangent lines in intangible spaces. Harmony was created between the musical
inspiration they agreed upon and the diametrically opposed methods they used to
study with.
"You know this world is just an illusion, right
Kyle?" Stacey said without looking up.
"So you say. What if it is real though; what if this is
it Stacey?"
Stacey shook her head "That's what keeps us all going
Kyle… what if?"

DeleteOne of my favorites this week.
ReplyDeleteOh! thank you, that is a very nice place to be. :-)
Deletethis was good. apt for the photo. well done
ReplyDeleteThank you :-)
DeleteI enjoyed this very much. Very clever of you to think of this in terms of diametrically opposed methods and reaching for something beyond. Great storytelling!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I too enjoyed your Friday Fictioneering; the story had me laughing for a good 15 minutes.
Delete"while he reached for tangent lines in intangible spaces"--a favorite line.
ReplyDeleteThank you :-)
DeleteGot it in one again!
DeleteI liked this and felt inclined to learning more about the what ifs.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to read and respond. There are many... :-)
DeleteWell done, clever references.
ReplyDeleteClever is good, yes? :-)
DeleteWell, I'm going on the theory that it IS an illusion, so don't wake me until somebody figures it all out! Interesting story and concept ...
ReplyDeleteHehehehe, I will keep the snooze button handy for you Perry.
DeleteIf life is a dream where am I sleeping? Believable dialogue, K. As a visual artist I liked the way you set the scene with the sculptor as a backdrop for a profound conversation.
ReplyDeleteShalom,
Rochelle
Thank you Rochelle. I think that artists are a particularly important component for the personal interactions we have with the world. Mathematicians are artists of another flavour.
DeleteVery good dialogue, I like it. And we should never give up reaching.
ReplyDeleteThank you Brudberg... yes, ever reaching!
DeleteThought-provoking!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite things to hear. :-)
Deletesorry. i had written out a decent comment and suggestion, but this site erased it when i had to go through all the steps to leave the comment, and i just don't feel like copying and pasting the lines from the story in order to detail it all again. anyway, well done.
ReplyDeleteWell thank you any way. I am not sure what you mean by "this site erased it when I had to go through all the steps to leave the comment" though, to the best of my knowledge there only three, hit "reply", write, and hit "publish".
DeleteThanks!
