Mini Saga #1 - the Vital Journey
December 31st, 2008
A Mini Saga is a story told in exact 50 words. Not 49 and not 51 but 50. I’ve not been a writer most of my life and am now on the journey to eventually write a book or three. To hone my skills I’m blogging, writing short stories and mini sagas. I’m posting my first mini-saga here. This one came easy for me. I suspect that others may not be so easy.
So here goes - let me know what you think.
The Vital Journey
The smell of disinfectant punctured the air he breathed as he lay there, waiting for the masked man, surrounded by shinny clean steel, tubing, buzzers and lights. He wondered without distress, would he live, would he survive? God said, “You’ll be fine, it’s about the kids”. And God was right!
