Inspiration Monday: Silk Prison

  By

Saw Star Trek: Into Darkness last night. Brilliant. My favorite part? A toss between Benedict Cumberbatch’s billowing coat, and everything else. My hopes for J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars have never been higher.

Ah, here’s something to do while we wait!

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:

SILK PRISON**

WAITING FOR AN ANSWER

MIND CLUTTER

WHAT’S IN THE BAG

STAYING UP EARLY

Inspiration Monday: Door Sweeper

Slightly out of sorts all day because of a lack of sleep. Only just remembered I couldn’t sleep because my head was streaming with details for a story I wanted to write. Ha! There’s a life lesson in there somewhere.

On to the stories folks have already written!

Inspiration Monday: The Man with No Name

  By

Eating Sour Patch Kids and wondering what “invert sugar” is. It’s the second ingredient. Is that like the opposite of sugar? Genetically modified to reverse the effects of the first ingredient? Is it going to mutate me into an unrecognizable whatsit?

Also, are Sour Patch Kids just the older, jaded version of Jelly Babies?

These are the questions that plague me.

Let us read these to calm our minds:
