My writer friend, Jill (her pen name is J Bea Wilson), has a monthly interactive newsletter called Lift, where she features a short story. But the twist is, she enlists her subscribers in a contest where they offer a premise for the story based on a theme. She selects the winner of the contest and the short story for the month is based on winner’s premise.
The theme for Jill’s July newsletter was “you’re so cute, it’s aggravating”. What partner’s personality traits can attract and aggravate the other partner? I submitted the premise where one partner is spontaneous and the other is scheduled. Guess what? My entry along with another subscriber’s entry were selected.
And since Jill is part of our Lady Lits, we have the same featured author, Mari Eygabroad, this month. So, Mari wrote the short story based on our entries. So, here’s the zany little getaway adventure where opposites attract and aggravate.
