Writing Prompt - Santa's Elf

Here we go, it's been a while, but here's a writing prompt for you that is straight from the same dish washing activity as the last post came from.

Write a short story involving one of Santa's Elves. This might be a story for one of your children or a child you know, it might be a little bit more rowdy and be for an adult you think would appreciate it. You might write it for online or use it in your novel somehow. Just have an elf and have it be one of Santa Clause's elves.

Is it a toymaker? Does the elf have the task of keeping the sleigh in good shape? A seamstress for all those clothes kids get? A cook? A lighting expert for holiday lighting? How about Santa's expert on chimney types around the world? A letter sorter? An elf assigned to watch a boy or girl to see if they have been naughty or nice?

You should have a muse by now, go see where it takes you and have a happy holiday!
