IMPROMPTU #61: Arithmetic and Rocket Ships

February 10, 2018 by Ellie Sawatzky

Today's prompt is "Arithmetic and Rocket Ships" by my fiercely talented friend Emily Carlaw (@frecklesandporcelain). Emily is a beautiful artist, fashionista, wild child, little shoppe owner on PEI (Freckles and Porcelain), and my dear friend of 10 years. This is one of my favourite pieces of hers—it's ripe with metaphor and innuendo and character potential. Have fun with it!
