Prompts and timed writing to get the juices flowing. Inspired by Laini and Meg at Sunday Scribblings. Check it out!
How does Prompt Writes work?
Each Monday I'll post a writing prompt to get our juices flowing.
You decide on a time limit for yourself (ie. 5 or 10 minutes, 1/2 an hour), then create a piece of writing inspired by the prompt. It can be poetry, prose, a list - anything.
You post your writing on your blog and leave the perma-link and a comment here. That way, we can share our work!
I'll publish our links here for people to follow and read.
Today's prompt is "hiding." Who is hiding from you? Who are you hiding from? Are you hiding anything? What's just beyond your field of vision? If you're looking for something or someone, do you know where to find it?
The last thirty years of my life have been spent hiding from the fist 34 years, funny I never think about it really except that it tore the heart from me, from my family from those I loved and I suspect even from some of those I hated. One thing my mother taught me well was how to keep a secret, she died with hers, leaving me to sort it out in endless days of therapy and ceaseless nights of fitful dreaming.
