The idea of this prompt is to pick some saying, or make one up if you would like, and write a story where that saying is relevant to the story. The saying could be the title or a sub-title or the final punch line. I suppose you could write a story and go looking for a saying. Below are some sites to get you going. Remember don’t put all your ideas in one story and a word on the page is worth two in your mind.
