1,000 Words

by JM

This Friday, we’re going to have a couple visual prompts. Both these people have something they are truly grateful for. What is it? Is it something obvious or something you would have never guessed? Who is this person to be grateful for such a thing/person/event?

Spend five minutes on each picture. Don’t edit yourself, don’t look back. Just write about the person and what you think s/he is grateful for.

    Is this 1,000 in total or 1,000 words for each picture ?
    Or is it a maximum of 1,000 words so 750 would be ok for example?

    Oops. There actually isn’t a word count. The title was meant to tie in with the saying “A picture is worth 1,000 words”. :)

    That makes it easier for me then (wipes brow) I was dreading having to count my words.
    Now I’m gonna have a good think about these photos!
