I’m so grateful to the Atlanta Writers Club for selecting me as this week’s “Weekly Writing Contest” winner!
For our latest weekly writing contest, with “seashore” as the magic word, the judges selected AWC member Abbe Wiesenthal‘s submission, which was as follows:
ATL Writer’s Club Newsletter, July 2020
I used to sell shells there
But twisted tongues and barren beaches
Swept away my customers
Like sandcastles in a high tide.
Who am I now,
The woman with the empty bucket,
Walking along the seashore,
Searching for slippery shrimp,
And saying it, three times, very fast.
