Finish the Story

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.

Alright, it’s time for a game and door prize! This one is easy folks, and fun! I’m going to start a story:

Once upon time in a kingdom far away, there lived a young princess. She was raven haired, fair skinned and very flaky. She couldn’t be counted upon for anything. She constantly forgot to show up at royal meetings and balls. But she had good reason her for it. Her family and friends had no idea that…

Now, the first person to comment will finish my sentence and add their own take to the story. Keep it short, think 2-4 lines tops. The next person will finish the sentence of the commenter above them and add their own few lines and so on. We’ll write a grand novel, I’m sure.

AND, what better prize for a story writing thread than a $10 online gift certificate to Barnes & Noble.com?! So get commenting!
