Back when I had the time to write, I always did enjoy interesting writing prompts. While I won't be dishonest in saying that I ever tried any, I always did love reading them and thinking on -how- to use them! 

Hence, the birth of this thread!  I'm going to post a starter, and your job is to respond to that through a short story, play, musings, poetry, fake newspaper articles, or any other form of creative writing.  How you use that starter doesn't matter, but to keep this from being a normal 'forum game', make sure that your post is substantial enough to qualify it staying in this forum area.

After you make your story/poem/whatever, you MUST post another starter for the next participant!  If you want, you can even post a list of starters for the next person to choose from.

I started writing a story today because I was bored, but I didn't get that far because of time.  I'll use the first sentence as a prompt:

"As I entered the dark room, I couldn’t help but notice that the air was thick and entered my throat like water slipping over an oily surface."

" I knew I smelled what seemed like whiskey, but I only imagined who was drinking this time, my father, step father, or some guy my mom invited over by my mom who my step father is trying to forget his envy of by drinking it away, just like all his other problems in life. Soon I start wondering these three things: Why does my mother try to "upstage" my step father? Why does my step father rely on alcohol to live and ignore his problems? And lastly, why do I put up with this?" I know it's not my best work, but I really am tired. 


Here's one for the one and only:

BluemageKyle:  Well, I don't want us to sandwich post, but I'll humor you this one time since you targeted the prompt specifically to me.  Also, I was kind of hoping for longer responses, as in a full short story or poem, but don't worry about it.   Just try to make something a little more in depth next time so that there is a reason this thread is in this section as opposed to, say, the crazy house.  

So now, Creative Writing:

GRAMMAR POLICEEEEEEEE!!!!! ASSSSEMMMBLLLEE! Gather near to me,
In recieving this special policing request, we've forgotten i before e.
Now as much as I'd like to throw you the book and have you read it through,
Remember that who we're dealing with might not have a single clue.
Such slips of the tongue consistently go unmentioned day by day,
So speak with gentility and mind just what you've say.
I'd rather it come off  a little to nice, then for it to go unheard
Remember to first always be kind, than to be true in word."

So that was really lame, but honestly, that's a really crazy prompt to even attempt with......  I tried to make a longer poem, but I find it difficult to think of grammar to make fun of.  LOL

Next prompt:  (And please, next participate, come up with something a little more substantial than what Kyle and I wrote. XD)

"Sometimes the threads of life don't intertwine the way in which they were meant.  A thread tweaked here, a weave missed there, and a new tapestry emerges."

OR

"On a nice sunny day, when the world's ceiling was gray, along came a butterfly...."
