His memories crowded close: an impenetrable barrier denying access whilst holding him back from the world. But he was sick of being imprisoned by the past. Caed knew it was time to tear down the walls – from their rubble he could build a marvelous palace in which to celebrate a bright future.
This post in for Sonya’s Three Line Tales. This week’s prompt is by Jace Grandinetti.
As with last week’s TLT, I’ve again written a snippit about one of the characters from my Nano novel, meaning that the words can be included in my word count. Yay! With these fifty added to it, my current total is 26,567 words, meaning I’ve narrowed the gap between myself and the current par to only 5,100 words. I will catch up eventually!
As I’ve mentioned before, due to the amount of time I’m putting into NaNoWriMo, I’m spending far less time on the blog this month than I usually like to do. If I haven’t responded to your comment or visited your blog, thank you and sorry. I will try to visit you at some point soon. 🙂
Thanks for reading.
Ooh, we thought on similar lines! Somehow this prompt reminds me of being ensnared by the past.

Great interpretation of the photo. Those walls (or whatever they are!) do look pretty confining.

Nano isn’t easy, but it is very rewarding! I’m just hoping to hit the 50k before the end of the month. 🙂

Beautiful Louise. Something new being forged from walls of the past which caught him and he wouldn’t let go. No he has 🙂
