“When spinning a steamy yarn, do not look to a fan base.”
Confucius, 500 B.C., on the golden rule of steamy yarn-spinning.
Each week Rochelle Wisoff-Fields posts a pic to write a 100 word story about. This week photo is:

Yarnspinerr and the Limp Blades: A Steamy Mystery
I will never recommend yarn-spinning. Check out my Instagram.
Vigilantly placing my yarn on the fan outside my apartment window one hot tropical day, I desired to spin quite the steamy yarn. One with intrigues and shadows, slithery female temptresses, and a humorous Watson-ian foil.
Instead, my blades fell; went limp, actually, I’m embarrassed to write. There they were, then weren’t. Slender threads of would be plot lines and metaphors lay dormant and spent on the ground beneath.
I will never spin another yarn again; spinning being for spiders and spinsters. Yarns, like children, should be scene, but not whirred.

That was a most fun take… not only using the photo but the photographer 😉
Had fun writing it, though it created quite a scene for me. (couldn’t resist).
😉 Randy
😂
Haha, very good!
Really? 😉
You’re not just spinning my tale, are you?
Thanks, Randy
Now that was different! 🙂
Different is good, I think.
Thanks, Sandra.
Randy
Wonderfully written.
Thanks for this very fun read. 🙂
I hope it gave you a smile – or at least a simile.
Thanks,
Randy
Thank you for the whirling prompt and the spun yarn.
Tracey
My pressure on the spun cycle and pearling whompt.

Randy

Glad you had a fin spun, er, fean rud, uh, fun read.
Fun is good.
Randy
A really fun take on the prompt.
Take my prompt, please, in the spirit of Henny Youngman and all the old comedians.
(Glad it was fun)
Randy
Love all the word-play!
not four-play?
Ha.
Randy
Fun! Enjoyed that!
good. Me, too.
Randy
A brilliant and truly fun take. Shall take care not to whirl while spinning. 🙂
Please do not whirl while spinning. Although 007 liked his martinis shaken, not stirred. I have no clue what all this means.
Thanks for the pic, Yarnspinerr.
Randy
A lot of swagger (ref 007).
I loved the wordplay. I hope your yarn recovers quickly from its limpness – I’m told psychotherapy can help…
Ha.
I can imagine much more creative help to get my blade up than just psychotherapy, although it has its place.
Thanks,
Randy
A punny tale!
from a punny wabbit?
Randy
Dear Randy,
I loved your pun-filled tale. I’m a great fan of word play you know. You’re pretty good at spinning a yarn or two, I’d say.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Do you have anything else you’d like to say?
There are a whole bunch of fans of yours out there listening.
😉
Randy
Wonderful. I was sorry when it ended 🙂
We whirl these every regularly at a funtastic rate.
Da-da-dum.
Randy
A groan for the final awful pun, a cheer for a clever story.
One grown and one chair for a cleaver story is cutting good, I’d slay.
Thanks,
Randy
Brilliant
I like your judgment.
Thanks,
Randy
LOL…great last line.
Save the best for last, I say.
Thanks,
Randy
Great word play. Really enjoyed your yarn non-spinning.
I spin no matter what – yarn or non.
Thanks for commenting,
Randy
Haha very clever!
Clever’s good.
Thank you.
Randy
Lovely, humorous plays on words.
I like to play. Care to join me?
Thanks,
Randy
