50 Word Friday: Bedazzled

At the start of this year I decided I wanted to take part in the oh-so-popular 365 project. You know, the one where a person takes a picture everyday for an entire year. Yeah, I wanted to do that but with short stories. I eventually stumbled upon the magnificent First 50 blog. I fell in love with the idea of 50 Word stories. So, I grabbed my notebook and pen and set out for my very own 365 project. And let’s just say that didn’t go so well. I didn’t even last an entire week. But it’s been something I’ve really wanted to do. Enter the creation of 50 Word Friday. Basically, what I’ll be doing is the same concept, 50 word short stories, but instead of daily I’ll do it on a much more manageable weekly basis.
