Hello Thursday!
Are you ready for another dose of prompts to get the creative juices flowing? So let’s get to it, but first the rules.
- Write 500 words based on one of today’s prompts.
- Post them to your blog.
- Copy the first few lines in the comments below along with the URL to the full text.
Yes, it’s that easy. Now on to the prompts to see what you can do!
1. Life could be mean. In one hand he held a swath of red silk. The other, a stuffed envelope. Neither choice was good…
2. Writing Challenge: Bad Writing Here’s your chance to cut loose. Books and critiques have hammered into us all the things we need to ditch for our writing to be good. I say rules were meant to be broken. Go wild for 500 words and write as bad as you can. No cliché is too clichéd. That verb need an adverb? Give it three. The goal? To have fun and remember why you write.

I’m only posting the opening line and link here. Please be forewarned that there is foul language used in my interpreation of this theme, which is why I have not posted any of it here. Thanks.
Money or the Silk
Correction – I am only placing the link here. Click on “Money or the Silk” above.
Life can be mean. In one hand he holds a swath of red silk, in the other, a stuffed envelope. Neither choice is good. He looks at The Five, then leans over and drops the envelope out the window into The City. They lean forward and watch it spiral 30 stories and break apart on the sidewalk. Pedestrians sidestep it without missing a beat.
