april - a 100 word novel

From age eight whenever marriage was mentioned April said I will not marry. I will live in the woods and cut down trees. If she was asked how she would live she said I will dig a well and I will catch birds and rabbits.

April trained as an architect and at twenty nine built a small house at the edge of woodland. She did not hunt for food or have a well but she owned and managed the woodland. Her favourite room was at the top of the house where she could read and look out over the woods.
