No. 29/100 100-word short stories for my 100 follower celebration!
“You shouldn’t have brought that with you,” Em’s father growled even as he wore a smile on his face, keeping up appearances for all the distinguished guests on his yacht.
Em didn’t respond. His fingers moved along the frets of the guitar without much thought. His mom sometimes claimed that his fingers had their own separate brains and Em was inclined to agree. Sometimes, his fingers played things that he couldn’t hope to dream of.
“At least…keep it down,” Dad muttered before stalking away.
With a smirk, Em nodded at a passing guest and began to play even louder.

When you write as much as I do, you have to take frequent breaks from sitting. A standing desk (not a whole desk, but a mini desk that will sit on top of my current desk with my laptop, keyboard, and mouse and extend upward) will allow me to continue working while maintaining that good blood flow to my brain. Thank you so much for your support that allows me to keep producing free content. God bless you! ♥️ E.J.
