Hey, ya’ll,

Sorry I’m a day late.  We just brought ‘lil Ruby Jean home from the hospital yesterday, and it was a busy, busy day.  And just to fully welcome us to the world of having multiple kids, our son, Ozzy, was (and is) sick with a cough and fever.  Ah, parenthood!

Here’s a writing prompt for you. It’s a simple fill-in-the-blank. You can use one word or several. Feel free to get as crazy, genre-appropriate, or as imaginative as you want. The point is to get the creative juices flowing. And it’s a good thing to dig deeper, so don’t stop at the first idea that hits you. Try coming up with at least five things.

“They snuggled up closer than _______.”

I’ll give you an example to get you started:

“They snuggled up closer than two sides of a sheet of paper.”

I’d love to hear what you come up with, so please share in the comments. Oh, and please keep your posts below an R-rating. It’s a family show, after all!

SHOUT OUT!

Thanks to everyone for your great additions to Wordplay Thursday #32 (read it here)! Great job!
