Inspiration Monday: if wishes were dragons

This week, I created a pitcher plant terrarium (which is currently undergoing stratification) and wrote part of a new scene. What did you do? Wish you had something to read? By George, I think I’ve got some!

The Rules

There are none. Read the prompts, get inspired, write something. No word count minimum or maximum. You don’t have to include the exact prompt in your piece, and you can interpret the prompt(s) any way you like.

OR

No really; I need rules!

Okay; write 200-500 words on the prompt of your choice. You may either use the prompt as the title of your piece or work it into the body of your piece. You must complete it before 6 pm CST on the Monday following this post.

The Prompts:

If wishes were dragons
Touch, but don’t look
The music follows
Falling together
Win to fail

    I knew I forgot something this morning! As soon as I saw the first prompt I knew what I was going to write…
