Writing Prompt Thursday: Used

Today’s question has me doing some thinking…

Write about something that you bought used.


What do I choose? My cars? My couch? Books? Books! Yes!

Most people know that I own an insane number of books. What they don’t know is that I’ve had a dream of owning one series of books since I was a child. The series is Cherry Ames. She’s a nurse and has all sorts of adventures. I first read them when I was a child and the series has always stuck with me. The problem is…I don’t really buy them online. I have this weird rule that I have to trip over them to get them. That could explain why I only own like four of them. I found one at a Goodwill and two at a candle store in Dundee, Michigan. Whenever I find one, it’s like Christmas morning. I hold onto it. I won’t set it down. I’m afraid someone will scoop it right up if I even place it in my cart. I don’t know how many people even know about my love for this series, but now I guess everyone who reads this does!
