Charles remembered being terrified of witches as a child, afraid of being stolen from his bed in the night, which made it particularly challenging to understand how he was now married to one.

Interesting twist. I would also like to know how he ended up married to a witch.
ReplyDeleteTheir relationship is going to be complex and I forsee many conflicts! I'd love to read this.
ReplyDeleteLoved this - Asks the obvious question why--and how.
ReplyDeleteHa! I would be very curious as to whether he thinks she's a literal or metaphorical witch.
ReplyDeleteI love this unexpected twist! Nice touch. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteSounds like this could be very funny or do I just have a strange sense of humor?
ReplyDeleteHa! I'm laughing because I just tucked my daughter in, despite her insistence that it is too scary to sleep alone and who knows what's coming to get her and yaddi yah. I had those childish fears in my mind for the opening of this, but then to find the man married to a witch--well, that is something to be afraid of. Great job with the prompt!
ReplyDeleteHow, indeed? I would love to read this story!
ReplyDeleteI'm with birdiesiview - I'm thinking it's going to be tongue-in-cheek.
ReplyDeleteMore please!
So, I am reading through all these amazing posts, thanks to Trifecta.

ReplyDeleteTongue in cheek or deadly serious, I'm still amused and curious about Charlie's predicament.
