Rolling With the Challenge: Inkwell Prompt #81
This week the Inkwell [writing contest](https://peakd.com/hive-170798/@theinkwell/the-ink-well-prompt-81-plus-weekly-challenge-and-prize-announcement) featured the prompt, "roll".  In addition to the prompt, there was a skill challenge: create an antagonist.  I thought I'd do a take-off on the prompt/skill challenge, and double down.  Not only would my story use the prompt word, "roll", but it would use the word in every single sentence.

I don't recommend this technique for crafting intelligent, worthy stories.  However meeting this challenge does require a certain exercise in verbal flexibility. That is always good for sharpening skills.

I share this macabre saga with readers in order to counter the malicious gossip that has been bandied about my sterling silver rolling pin talisman. This rolling pin shield never leaves my body, even when I shower.  Today, dear readers, I present to you  an explanation for the origin of my rolling pin nightmare.  At the conclusion of this tale, it is certain you will not only understand the necessity for the rolling pin talisman, but may also yourself consider obtaining such protection. 

This is how it started:

When I walked into the kitchen that grim day and saw  Meghan raise the rolling pin above her head, I had no intimation of the calamity that would follow. The brandished rolling pin triggered a flashback in my mind to the movie *Psycho*.  While nothing in Meghan's demeanor resembled the demeanor of *Psycho's* demented killer, still the rolling pin image stayed with me as I drifted off to sleep.  

Oh, what horrible rolling pin  night terrors ensued! Dark images of rolled dough.  Sinister shadows of hot cross rolls cooling on an endless stream of windowsills.  Even a poisoned apple pie edged with delicately rolled crust.

I rolled about in my bed and slept little as these gruesome fantasmas plagued my slumber.

The next morning I rolled out of bed with great reluctance.  I knew Meghan had been startled by my reaction to her rolling pin the day before. She was usually a relaxed girl who rolled along with whatever seemed to be happening in the moment. But that morning, when I entered the kitchen, she rolled her eyes at me, and asked, "Any more attitude from you today, Eric?"

There was no way to know if the rolling pin drama would pass quickly from Meghan's mood, or if she would hold  a grudge.  I rolled the cereal caddy around to select a small box of bran flakes, took what I needed, and rushed out of the kitchen.  I could eat on the way to work as the *Citi* bus rolled through the tightly congested streets.  

There was a kind of rolling pin penumbra that covered everything I saw.  Why did that rolling pin affect me so deeply?  If I closed my eyes I could imagine a huge, boulder-like pin rolling down a mountain toward me, unstoppable and deadly.

Work did not offer respite from my rolling pin chimera.  Everywhere there seemed to be rolls.  Cinnamon rolls on the coffee cart that rumbled past.  Heart-shaped rolls that taunted on the lunch counter.  

I knew by late afternoon that I needed to talk to my therapist about my roll fixation.  

The therapist answered the phone and said, "Can you hold on for a minute Eric, as I finish my freshly buttered roll?  I hate it when a roll gets cold, don't you?" 

I hung up the phone, which rested on a roller-shaped cradle.  It was obvious that no earthly intervention could save me from the spectre of the rolling pin.  I designed the sterling silver rolling pin talisman myself, and I have worn it ever since.  Whenever the image or idea of a roll or rolling pin enters my head now, I clutch the talisman and am instantly comforted.  

I can walk through a bakery today and gaze with ease upon rows of rolls and a floured rolling pin.  As long as I grasp the  talisman I am assured that never will I be harmed by any simple or compound expression containing the word 'roll'.

@agmoore When I saw the prompt "Roll" last Tuesday and saw the picture of the camera on it, I had forgotten all the roles in my mind other than the roll of the camera and the role of the pictures taken with the camera in life. Through this story of yours, now I came to know how many rolls can be used in life. You have been surprised us many times before, but this time also you have made the story amazing by mixing mysticism with reality. I was very surprised and impressed.
with thanks best regards

You make me very happy with your comment, @fantom22.  I used to be a teacher. This line:
> Through this story of yours, now I came to know how many rolls can be used in life. 

This is gold to a teacher's ear.  All the curators in the Inkwell receive great satisfaction when they help writers to find their muse.  You are one of those writers.  It has been a pleasure to see how your skills have developed. And you are so courteous and supportive of other writers.

Thank you very much for that great comment.  Writing is work, and it is also great fun, isn't it?

Thank you my friend!  I must say I did a little giggling myself as I wrote this.😁 I was really tickled to find @muelli's picture. What do they say about a thousand words?

How can anyone turn down this invitation to write??πŸ˜…

I appreciate your not-deserved high praise.

Oh yes, I can see that you did indeed have fun with this, @agmoore. What's amazing to me is that with the different interpretations and meanings of the word "roll" it does not sound at all repetitive. What a fun exercise! I dare you to do it with the word "orange." :-)

Thank you for inspiring us with your wit and creativity!

I think once was enough.  It was a fun gimmick. Thanks for appreciating it.  Sometimes, as you once told me, it's good to shake things up.  All we can do is try...πŸ˜‡

A clever story because of the way you play with language, so effortlessly. You would think hearing the word rolling pin talisman over and over would give you headache, on the contrary, all it gives me is the desire to own a rolling pin talisman. Masterful!

That almost had me rolling on the floor with laughter.

Mercifully I snatched a nearby rolling pin and used it as my talisman. 

Thus... I only laughed just the right amount to ensure my belly rolls rolled a liddle bit with laughter too! 

Cool story and worth keeping the concept rolling in the comments πŸ‘

Thank you for the encouragement 😊

I'll do my best... I don't have much experience with writing fiction so this will be good practice I guess. I do have [The Inkwell](https://peakd.com/@theinkwell) (well!) on my radar.

I'm trying to find a "home" to land for the next bit this month. So it's going to be busy and full of change around here again. Tired now and **so** want to find somewhere to rest a bit for the next while. And rebuild...

So I'm coming to The Inkwell soon... but can't say when for sure.

p.s. I can't quite wait until things settle down enough for me to focus more on creating! Until then I'll just keep muddling along and reading all of you guys. It does keep the creative flame alive.

Yes!  That's what I wanted.  I used to attend a writer's workshop (in person) and when a session was over, we would all go home and feel like *writing*.

I hope to read your story this week. Have fun with it.

Thank you so much for that generous comment.
