Tread Softly

Freely Written: Short Stories From a Simple Prompt

Apr 2 2024 • 12 mins

In today's story, Tread Softly, a young woman reflects on lessons she learned from her older brother.

Today's prompt was inspired by a book of the same title. When I was young, I loved Tread Softly by Corinne Gerson. I recently tracked down a copy and was delighted to read it again.

As always, this story was written from the prompt, with no planning and very little editing. If you enjoy today's story, please share it with your friends and leave a review for Freely Written. Thank you!
