Don't know if you caught NPR's 28-second story about George Washington's overdue library books on Monday morning, but it made me laugh. New York City's oldest library says George Washington is still on the hook for a pair of books — due Nov. 2, 1789.

Here is your writing prompt for this week. Come back tomorrow and link us to your published post. Have fun!
