  1. Prompt Two

    Grab a book - any book you want that is close by - and flip to a random page. Use the first (full) sentence on the page to start your own story. Try to not follow exactly what happens in the original story. (Ex: sentence is "Harry picked up the book." in the original story Harry is a boy who reads the book, but in your own story, Harry is a dog that picks up the book in his mouth to chew it.)

    Prompt One

    Use the following words somewhere in your story (other forms, such as have -> had or horse -> horses, is allowed) - consult your dictionary (website) if needed!

    Faded
    Spade
    Camera

    Challenge: Written with a 10-minute timer, finished with 3 minutes to spare.

     

    Adelyn picked up her spade and began to dig. What she was looking for — that thing, that thing that caused all of this — it was here somewhere, in this valley. It was hours before she had real progress. The earth was now littered with holes and loose dirt, and as she started her 27th hole, her camera fell from her belt, rolling away from her and onto an untouched patch of dirt. As Adelyn grabbed it with her grimy hand, she noticed something faded buried beneath the dirt. It was likely just an old rag or moldy newspaper, but her curiosity took ahold of her. She carefully excavated around it, and she saw it. The thing that started it all.

     

    (intended cliffhanger ;) maybe it will have a sequel, maybe not. and prompt words are in bold to show how I used them - you don't have to do that if you don't want!)

  3. Challenges

    1. Set a timer for 2, 5, or 10 minutes. Start writing when you set it, and don't stop until it goes off! Only make minimal edits/finishing touches before posting/finishing.
    2. Use the prompts to make multiple stories using the same character(s) and/or setting. For example, you could have a character named Angie who lives in a fantasy world, and you could do a different or continuing story with Angie with each prompt, or perhaps with someone else who lives in the fantasy realm. Make a whole fantasy world through them!
    3. Combine several prompts into one story (you could use prompts that aren't mine in this as well).
    4. Make as short of a story as you can with the prompt given - even as short as a sentence if possible!
    5. Check here each time there's a new prompt, because more challenges may be added! (Feel free to suggest your own ideas!!)

  4. so I did one of these a SUPER long time ago as well as a few similar topics, so here we are all over again.

     

    Basically, every once in a while (aka when I remember and feel like it) I'll post some sort of writing prompt; you can make a short story, you can incorporate it into a story you're already making, you can make it into the plot of your next New York Times Bestseller, whatever. There's also some challenges you can do in addition if you feel like it. Preferably you would post your work in this topic as a reply to the prompt (and noting any challenges you did) but if you want to keep it secret that's fine! anyway have fun and good luck ❤️

    @Sky did you like the post to remember to vote later? Forgive me if this is pushy, but I'd actually really like to see which of my playthroughs you like(d) the best!

    Unfortunately I cannot remember any of these, either because it's been so long or I never read them (I don't read playthrough very often anymore). I'll try looking them up now so maybe I can vote! ❤️

    Actually, The rainbow flag became associated with LGBTs around 1978.

    Now, the First generation of gaming consoles was released in 1972.

    just saying that rainbows have existed since the Flood (or earlier even) as well as, of course, colors in general, so the fact that those gems are certain colors doesn't mean it has any connection whatsoever to the gay flag

    anyway those posts were 2 years ago and I'm sure Goggles was joking

    some of these are just series because I can't choose a favorite book

    • Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library
    • all books by the Erin Hunter team
    • Harry Potter
    • every single gods-and-goddesses book by Rick Riordan
    • A Tale Dark and Grimm
    • The Inquisitor's Tale
    • Wings of Fire
    • The Giver (And the other three books after it)
    • Island of the Blue Dolphins
    • A Wrinkle in Time
    • Wolves of the Beyond
    • Waggit's Tale (DOGGO!!)
    • Keeper of the Lost Cities (series)

    uhhh it's been a long time since this but I actually haven't read a whole lot of books recently

    (right now my favorite book is Ella Minnow Pea (13+, yes I'm doing age ratings too), though I also loved the Clockwork Three (10+) (I hate that the cover it shows here has pictures of the kids on it. one of my favorite things bout the book is that it never describes what the three look like beyond "she has long braids")

    right now I'm reading Sherlock Holmes (13+ just be old enough to understand it) as well as the fourth book in the Mirror Visitor series (15+) :) 

  11. Clan gen is super fun! I'm actually a moderator on the official discord :] if y'all can, y'all should join it, you can share your kitties and art + see what the developer (and other contributors) are up to! the invite is on the page that Polly linked
