Inspiration Monday: a dying art

  By

Home again, but Internet will be spotty again Thursday through Saturday (happy Thanksgiving everyone!). Things still look good for a post this Friday though (it’ll just be scheduled). Enough of my boring life; read some of these great stories: I know you’ll get sucked in.

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:

A dying art
The stars look different*
No one remembers but me
Can’t find it with a map
Error message

Inspiration Monday: follow the colors

  By

I had a great weekend! Saw some family, bought some books, drank really good coffee. Finished re-reading the Hobbit and I think I found what I want on my tombstone (because what writer hasn’t thought about that?). Ten million awesome points if you can guess what I picked! Or you could spend your time reading these awesome pieces instead:

Never stopped running
Too easy
The nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me

Inspiration Monday: looking down on the stars

  By

A bit of a slow week in Rewriter land; it is November, after all. Extra awesome points to those of you doing NaNoWriMo who also managed to write InMon stories this week!!! You’re all insane. But in a good way. Read and be inspired!

Blood type
The only thing he ever wanted
Just like the book said

Inspiration Monday: escape your own skin

  By

Greetings, my dear InMonsters! Yes; I stole that from LoveTheBadGuy. Thought it fitting, today being Halloween; I also picked some creepy-sounding prompts, which I  guess technically should have been last week, to build up to Halloween, but I didn’t think of it till today. Anyway, read some genius! /

Inspiration Monday: my homework ate the dog

Watching World Series game 5. This has got to be a conspiracy of the blood pressure drug companies. Best get your mind off it by reading some of this week’s work. I’m off to watch the bottom of the fifth!
