This month in the InMon offices: I’m a week late with prompts. Yes. I was distracted last week by the news, among other things. In other news, I will likely be rethinking InMon before the end of the year. Perhaps it needs an update, perhaps it’s time to be replaced with something else entirely. Any thoughts on the subject? Please leave a comment.
Our star storyteller this month is:
–
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 first Monday of the month following this post.
The Prompts:*
TIME WEB
FEATS OF WEAKNESS
FORGOTTEN ROOM
RENTAL DRAGON
FINAL BEGINNING

thanks a lot Tara Maam your article is very nice .
Hi Steph. I’m still here but my brush is being the dominatrix to my pen at present. I’ve taken early retirement and my days are busier now than they were when I was working!
How about you tighten up on the rules – say 300 words max. Only one prompt – may be a single word. Make it that the word (or a derivative) has to be in the story.
Then (assuming more than one entry) choose one as your favourite – not necessarily better, but one that touches you more. Something for us to work for …
… just thinking.

Hmmm. Good input. I’ll definitely think about it. Thank you! It’s always nice to see you around the blogosphere.
I went with Time Web for this one… https://thinspiralnotebook.com/2017/10/10/time-is-a-web/
Here’s a submission for ‘Forgotten Room’ – it’s one I wrote some time ago for an earlier InMon – but I thought it deserved another airing …
