July Challenge | Keeley Schroder | Day 13 | Harry Hogg
Writing prompts to inspire you through July
# 13 What was your first word as a baby?
I don’t know, but I can imagine, seeing as how I’m a granddad.
I imagine myself as a baby in a cot, wrapped up, half asleep, when a huge adult sticks his or her head over the side and says BOO! Well, I just shit myself.
After I’ve been cleaned up, they take me onto their lap, and in the next instant I’m on a fucking elevator, going up and down into the air gripped by the vice you call hands. Well, guess what, I shit myself before I projectile vomit.
I’m not saying anything, but trust me, the wincing is not fucking smiling, okay?
Oh, and just so you know, when you’ve cleaned away my warm shit and decide to clean me up with a cold wipe, it’s like sitting you on a toilet that has an ice cold bidet. What’s the word you’d come up with?
Other wonderful writers engaged in this challenge. Read and enjoy.

More from Harry:
Hey, this is Harry. If I’ve written anything that caught your attention, made you smile, maybe shed a teardrop, would you buy me a coffee? How? I’ll explain, for a measly $5 you can read anything, all the writers, poets, songsters, idiots, and other monkey business that happens inside Medium. If you choose to join and compliment me by using my link: Harry Hogg, I’ll receive a portion of your membership fee from Medium, a community that keeps its wallet closed tighter than a duck’s arse! Do I need the money? Will I die, starve, and not continue to drink alcohol? No, I’ll still live happily ever after, but with a smile on my face that someone liked what I’ve written and joined up to follow me and the other writers who make up Medium. Com
