FOWC

Welcome to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (U.S.).

Today’s word is “diverse.”

Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.

Once you are done, tag your post with #FOWC and create a pingback to this post if you are on WordPress. Please check to confirm that your pingback is there. If not, ÿplease manually add your link in the comments.

And be sure to read the posts of other bloggers who respond to this prompt. Show them some love.

5WWC/WDYS — New Place In Town

“Why would you think I‘d be averse to a new establisment opening up in town? It would be a nice place for a diverse group of people to meet and converse about all manner of things,” Roger said. “And maybe it will help to reverse the trend of retail shops and restaurants closing up shop. New blood is just what this town needs.

“Wow, Roger, I underestimated you,” Gretchen said. “I was sure when you learned that it was a minority-owned business called ‘Give a Little Happiness’ to be run by two gay black women, that you’d be strongly opposed to it.”

“Wait, what?” Roger said. “You’re not talking about the Gentlemen’s club that’s opening next to the local office of the Junior Chamber of Commerce?”

“Oh my, Roger,” Gretchen said, “how quickly you transversed that maze when you realized how you were trapped. I guess the café I was talking about is not the kind of new blood you were hoping the town would attract.”
