500 Club (4/26)
Hi everybody, it’s time to write!
Here’s the rules for our little game:
- Write 500 words based on one of the two prompts below.
- Post it to your blog.
- Give us a line or two in the comments, along with a link back to the full text.
1. Write a story about a tight-knit community. Does your hero want to break free, or remake the rest of the world in his community’s image? And would that be a good or a very bad thing?
2. Start with an omen. A raven, a black cat, a shining light haloing someone’s head. Just make sure your omen foreshadows the opposite of what we expect (halo = bad! Raven = good!)
Good luck and have fun!
