Today’s Fiction prompt
There is something unusual under your bed. Write a story about it.
Restriction — 100 words exactly (Centina)!
These ‘restrictions’ are to challenge you as a writer. However, with everything else here at PW, use these prompts in any other way you see fit. We aren’t the writing police around here!
