Don’t forget to read my latest longer form written piece “Out Of The Blue“. It could use some love, and so could I. Anyhow, here’s the latest fictioneers piece:

I looked up at the statue of a long lost ancestor. My 30th great uncle Seamus MacCourt, a major landowner in the North of Scotland.
I don’t know why I kept looking at him for so long. I never knew the Scottish side of my family, never really cared to either.
That is, until this month. When my great aunt Amelia MacCourt passed on. And I was given the land of my ancestors. Not sure why, I didn’t really know her.
Looking up at this ancestor of mine, though, maybe it’s his spirit inside me. To do great things with this new land I now own.
I guess I better get started.
There’s no time like the present to get started. 🙂 Good response to the prompt.
God bless you,
Cheryl
I wonder what he did with the land?
You may find out…this story is one I think I am going to expand. 😀
Cool
Nice. That’s a lot of “sudden responsibility” to be put on one’s shoulders.
Yes, get on and do! It’s amazing how the emotional pull can have an effect on us…
Miles, Good story. I hope his dreams come true. Well written. I’ll go over and read your longer story. You can read my story “She Still Lives”, close to 500 words, on Adam Ickes’ Storybook Corner. Well done. 🙂 —Susan
