Flash Blog: Laughter

Different types of laughter can be as telling and distinctive as manners of speech – chuckling, chortling, giggling, twittering, sniggering, etc.  How do your characters laugh?


Personally, no type of laughter is as precious to me as that of my nieces.  Many would, I believe, agree with the general sentiment that children's laughter can be heartening, curative, and inspiring.  We should all pay more attention to that beautiful sound.

  5. Visiting from the flash. I so agree about children's laughter. I think because it is so genuine that it resonates so with us adults.

  7. I once went for a massage after riding the bus with about six babies in their strollers with their mom's. I told him about and he said, "do you know how completely you've just relaxed?" Nothing like it.
