Today's 'Q' prompt word is depicted by a character in the excerpt below. See if you can guess what personal attribute I've described that begins with 'Q'. Can't wait to read your comments! And remember, Jessica Bell is working with the same prompt words as I am this A-Z Blogfest. There's a link to her blog below.
Here goes:
“I’m so glad you’re here, Sara!” Libby squealed, yanking her friend into the apartment. “I simply can’t decide who to wear to the party.” She led Sara down the narrow corridor and into the tight confines of her bedroom.
“Well,” Sara said, perched on the edge of the bed, “It’s casual…”
“Right.” Libby rubbed her chin and looked thoughtfully into her closet. She pulled out a pink mohair sweater with a second hanger hooked behind it, so that a pink and black plaid skirt dangled below the sweater’s hem. “What about Charlotte?”
“Charlotte?”
Libby held the outfit up a little higher. “Yes, right here. Hello?”
Sara stared at the clothes with a look of confusion on her face.
“You’re right,” sighed Libby. “Charlotte went to the Robert twins’ party three weeks ago. She’d be recognized, n’est-ce pas? Ooh! I know.” She reached back into the closet. “What about Zandra? She’s a hoot at parties!”
Sara’s eyes traveled from the sleeveless, zebra-striped mini-dress to Libby’s animated face, and simply shook her head. “You are the kookiest friend I have,” she said with a giggle.
“Aw! Thanks, Sara!" She held the dress up to herself. "So…Zandra comes to the party with us?”
Any ideas what 'Q' word prompted this scene? And after guessing in the comments, please shoot over to Jessica's blog to see what creative excerpt she's come up with based on our word-of-the-day! See you over there!
