The sense of urgency intensified, and she groaned and fumbled in the pouch. Emergency blanket. She worked it out of the pouch and struggled to unfold it, finally giving up and draping the wet and still half-folded blanket around her shoulders. Fire-sparker. She dug deeper, and found a handful of the waxy fuzzballs that would ignite even when sopping wet and burn long enough to start even green wood burning. And the driftwood, while a bit damp on the river side, didn’t feel soggy.

Great description and beautiful story telling as always. Thank you for a wonderful snippet.
Another great six! Yes, a fire. Good idea. Thanks for sharing!
Yikes. You can feel how miserable she is. Great six!
Sounds interesting!
Good girl!!! get that fire going!!!
Great six! *nods*
xx
A,
I’m thinking that is not what she signed up for. Cold, wet and shivering, at least she is able to think straight in order to get a fire going.
Lovely descriptive writing, loved it!
…she’s almost there! Hopefully she has fire in the next six 🙂
Very nicely compacted. Amazing the tale you can spin with only a few words.
I won’t say it’s random, but the six contiguous sentences were a random snippet from the scene I’m sharing bit by bit. They make more sense in context–that’s why I’m putting the scene on my author website as I put bits of it on six sentence Sunday.
