Uncertain Future: 5 Minute Freewrite: Tuesday

avatar

Sandy: The uncertain future scares me. Where will we live?

Hook: I have my people in the city who will shelter us as we look for jobs that will sustain us.

Sandy: Things are so bad here but I don't know if I'm ready to escape out from underneath my parents. What if they come and search for us. Father has always said that I am his forever.

Hook: We will be like Bonnie and Clyde living on coffee cups, tin canned whinnies, bottles of jack, throwing that because it makes it fun to drive, expensive cars, borrowed until they are picked up from the toeing company by the owner, and around the states going from bank to bank as we ditch your family.

Sandy: I like how you talk like a bad boy. I would like to be an actress in the big city. I'd like to start on the street and perform for the millions of people that come through.

Hook: Only the best life for you, babe. Anything that you want but you will have to get up and help me get you back to the car before you bleed out.

Ongoing Contests

  • twenty-four-hour short story - You gotta be quick to get this one posted in time. He posts the contest on Sunday (usually) and ends it about 48 hours later. This contest has a 2000 word limit.

  • Finish the Story Contest - The contest begins on Wednesday (usually) and ends 5 days later. This contest will test your write skills with something a little different each week. Plenty of time to write something around the 500 word mark.

  • Steem Monsters Common Card Fantasy Story Contest! - Coming out roughly every week. If you enjoy card games like Magic, Yugio, and others like it, you might like this game. Write a fictional tale about the card they present in the contest and your entry just might be the one they choose to showcase.

  • Tell A Story To Me, And Win 5 SBD! Writing Contest - Kind of random when it comes out but don't worry. You will have two weeks to complete your work of art from the given prompt. Have fun!

  • Haiku - These are coming out every couple days or so. If you struggle with rhymes, no worries. Haikus don't have to rhyme. All you need to make a haiku is five syllables on the first, seven syllables in the second line, and again back to five syllables for the last line. So easy it makes me think I'm being super productive. LOL

  • Mizu No Oto - Every Image Has Its Haiku Contest - By reading the title, you should be able to guess how this haiku contest works. You're given an image and you write. I've really enjoyed this contest because there are people here who've actually gone to classes to learn how to write haiku's; so if you want, you also can learn how to write quality haikus from reading the comments and critiques they and others give.

  • Micro-Fiction Writing Contest - This is a fun challenge. You get two-hundred and fifty words to tell a story or vignettes. Here is a great post that will explain the difference between the two concepts. Here is another post explanation of what a story is. Good luck, Brave Story Writer!

  • Vocab-Ability 1x1 - What happens is you are given a list of roots and the words they can be found in. You create a sentence using those words and post in the comment section of the post. Your upvote for your creative work will come soon. One of the best ways to increase your vocabulary is by doing these 10-15 minute exercises almost daily. What craziness will you create?
