Each Wednesday I’ll post a sentence to start the ‘Ninety Nine’ story off, and then anyone can join in and finish it so that the story has a total of 99 words. Some Ninety Nines will be more difficult to finish than others. Please keep it reasonably clean. Thanks.

Last week there were only two entries, and one of them was mine! This one and the next will be scheduled, but if there are no takers for both of them then I’ll stop doing any more as there’s obviously no interest.

Here’s the first sentence…

Moonlight shone down upon a silver trail of slime across the kitchen floor.

And here’s my effort:

Moonlight shone down upon a silver trail of slime across the kitchen floor.  Annie, half asleep, made the unfortunate decision not to turn on the fluorescent light.  Picking her way in the dark towards the kettle, she felt a sickening crunch under her bare feet and then something cold and damp. 

She backtracked to the light switch.  The bulb spluttered into life and horrified, Annie closed her eyes at the sight of a bloated slug in its final death throes.  She decided there and then it was time to get a damp course sorted out once and for all.

Click on the button below to join your blog to this one, and try to comment on at least two stories. I’ll schedule another one as I’m still away, but I will read your contributions as soon as I return from holiday.
