Vivian Kirkfield holds a yearly writing contest in which you have to write a story with a beginning, middle, and end, using only 50 words. Here’s mine:
Painting a Rainbow
It was Cloudy’s first rainbow. She picked colors and started
to paint. But orange disappeared! It wasn’t on her poofy table. Not behind her
floofy Mama. Oh no, the sun started to shine! She peeked under her fluff. There
it was. She splashed a dash and the rainbow was glorious.
I am currently an Instructional Assistant at an elementary school. I was an English language learner paraprofessional for elementary-age children and a substitute library technician at elementary and middle schools before I moved. I volunteer at my local library. In addition to writing, I also express my creativity through music and braiding hair at Renaissance, Celtic, and fantasy faires. Since the pandemic I also crochet! Latina and bilingual.
