Today’s a Nick Drake kinda day–a day when you take long walks, languidly pick up that hobby you promised yourself you were going to finish, catch up with loved ones over a nice, warm drink…and read pleasant little stories inspired by gorgeous, surreal imagery.

Welp, it’s another light week, which means it’s time for a nice, pleasant writing prompt. This one is presented with only a photo of a flooded basement. Enjoy!
