Ooh, what a fun idea! š If I can actually come up with one for the second picture (lovely aaaahh!!) I may actually join in. I don’t really do prompts though so I’ll have to test the waters and see… š
Oh, and I don’t know if you like doing tags like this, but I tagged you on my blog, C.B! š You obviously don’t have to do it but I thought I’d tell you anyway. XD https://deborahocarroll.wordpress.com/2015/06/04/favorite-screen-characters-tag/

Sorry I didn’t get around to this in time. š„ I honestly wanted to, but I kind of backed myself into a corner entering that cowboy story contest. Waiting for them to announce the winners is just nerve grating. They’re now announcing them one by one. Now I know I’m not second or third place. It’s first or nothing, and I barely got any sleep last night. XD
I might still do a story one one of these some other time, though! š

I’m sure I will! š I’m just too nervous right now to write. I’ll probably be fine after tonight when Kingdom Pen finally says the winner. Just the agony of not knowing is freezing my writing. XP
