Excellent An unsung worker enjoys a day off from work. Someone Has To Do It by Beck Fenton 100 Word Story writing prompt entry Artwork by avmurray at FanArtReview.com

Coming home in the light of dawn is my normal, everyday routine. I don't need a clock to tell me when to get up and when to finally sleep. I have a huge breakfast at night just before I head out. I don't eat again all night. I can't. You'd think I could, but no. The sights and smells and even sounds make my stomach turn. My phone never rings because I don't have any social life. I'm not really lonely. Okay, maybe on those balmy summer nights when it would be fun having someone to talk with. I paint rocks when I'm lonely. I paint rocks and hide them all over the city. Children find them. Sometimes I see their faces light up when they discover a rock. It sure offsets my job as a janitor in the morgue. Writing Prompt Write a story that is between 100 and 150 words. The trick is you must use the following words: breakfast, light, rock, phone, clock
