Nia taps her Mary Jane and sneaks a peek at the clock — ten minutes until pick-up. The trio has been through notes, quotes, and thoughts of every flavor. Their mind jello refuses to set. “Wah-aaa-aa-ahhhh!” Thalia exercises her dramatic flair. Calliope strolls through their online photo album and lights on a note they recently saw in a coffee shop bathroom. “Here. This will have to do.”
Wow! Dempsey lived a rich and varied life. 💪🏻 Thanks for the link!
For a while I tried asking questions at 3mm’s conclusion. Something about the practice didn’t feel right to me. I think the questions I was asking felt like “leading” a reader to a specific conclusion. 🤷♀️
Ask a better question, get a better answer?
What my hope for my writing is:
The best teachers are those who show you where to look, but don’t tell you what to see.
I’m bereft of street lingo. When I read “Mary Jane” I immediately thought of Tom Petty’s “Last Dance With Mary Jane.” A bit of a “Wink-wink” title as everyone was certain he was referencing marijuana!
Notwithstanding that ringer from ancient history, what was the Mary Jane? I read your post as a “100 Naked Words” offering. A whole: beginning, middle, end. And effective.
I hope that decision freed you to move on to your very own day! 😁
How many ways can one writer creatively say, "I have nothing to say today?" 😂
I suspect I've surpassed 100.
I have a thought... Perhaps helpful for future posts... Questions are incredibly powerful!
Aside from the “Quote?”
What can we learn from the history, the life, the wisdom acquired, of the man known as “Jack Dempsey.”

Multiple facets...
Certainly, not “just a boxer.” Not just a “champion.”
Cultural icon, Hall of Fame, Entrepreneur, Writer, Leader of men, etc!
It’s not always what we say... Sometimes, it’s what we ask... 😊

Ahhh! A delightful lunch gathering in honor of a bride to be was enjoyed fully knowing I’d kept my 3mm love letter promise to myself. :)
