These are just short stories I write for my English class, enjoy.
The directions for the assignment is simple: we're given a vocab word and a simple, everyday action - crossing the street, walking a dog, buying shoes. Write a story no shorter than half a page. The action, or prompt, must be mentioned at some point in the story - it can be any point at all, as long as it's in there somewhere. It doesn't have to revolve around that action, but it must happen at some point. The vocab word, however, must be saved until about 3/4ths of the way through the paragraph, the last few sentences or so. No earlier. The vocab word must also be blanked out, but what's the uses of doing that here, am I right?

Over the Wall: A Collection of Short Stories (NaNoWriMo 2014)
This year for NaNoWriMo, I am writing a short story anthology. It will feature thirty or so short stories (my hope is to write one per day to fulfill my 1,667 per day word requirement) about varying things. Each morning, I will randomly select a number between one and thirty and I will look at the corresponding list of first lines I will have. I will take that line and write a short story using it and then the next day I will do the process over again (some stories might relate to each other, some might not). Anyway I will edit the story for that day and post it here. It may not be posted exactly on the corresponding day, but in the end there will be thirty short stories. P.S. Although these are somewhat edited they are still rough drafts so please treat them as such.Complete
