One Sentence Challenge: Water

It's Monday! You know what that means...

ONE SENTENCE CHALLENGE time!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by last week. The winning sentence for the challenge word Tornado was submitted by Megan Robinson:

Debris is flying in the sky: shingles, doors, even a car or two, twisting and whirling violently, until it suddenly subsides and all is silent.

Well done, Megan! You've won a Limited Edition, signed and hand-numbered red-ink Ærenden bookmark. These can only be won and you'll soon have the first one!

Readers, think you can do better at crafting a story in a single sentence? Have at it. You could also win an LE bookmark.

This week's challenge word is WATER.

I look forward to reading your submissions :).

One Sentence Challenge: A Tornado

Starting this week, I'll be offering a one sentence challenge to anyone who wants to try their hand at telling a story in as little space as possible. I'll provide the topic; you comment with your sentence. It's as simple as that. For now, there are no prizes and no winners, though I will highlight the three sentences I like best at the end of the week (and link to those people's websites, if they're provided). Now that I have the LE bookmarks, there actually will be ONE winner every week who will receive a red-ink bookmark. :)

Don't consider yourself a writer? Don't worry. It's just for fun. So have at it. 

This Week's Topic: A tornado.

Example (just a throw-together; I'm sure you can do better!): Nature stirs the air with a negligent finger, pulling water from the sky, dirt from the earth, and releasing both within the wrath of her violent howl.
