Just-Jot-It-January (Jan 4-7)
So, this month I’m doing a challenge to write a micro a day, for Just-Jot-It-January. Thanks to Linda G. Hill, bloggers in the “Play Group” have proposed a one-word prompt for each day. Today’s prompt, “TEMPEST” was my suggestion! We share our responses back to Linda’s page, and are able to read what others come up with.

His eyes gleamed intense as the full moon above, his collar-length hair swept back in lines of seafoam white over ocean dark.
