Fun Challenge from "The Literary Lab"

Domey for over at "The Literary Lab", sent out an invite for a One Sentence Story UN-challenge. 

This is a fun site if you haven't visited.  I thought what the heck and sent in my one sentence novel. lol

The slap of the rickety screen door, like a starting pistol, signaled the race for life as he left the old farm house for the last time.

    I get so fed up with reading poetry blogs that romanticise a rusty nail. For once, one sentence got to me!

    Glenn, old habits are hard to break. I wanted to close the window to keep out the weather. It's a good shelter from a storm. And I could hear the rickety door. Good writing. John

    You continue to amaze me. If I am in a position where I "have to write sumthin'", I freeze. You simply open your mind...and go.
