I'm trying to start up more Randomness games that spur creativity and writing. So, the idea of this game is to write! That is why we are here after all.
The user before you will post a word or idea and then you get to write a flash fiction piece or poem that uses that idea or word. Problem is, you only get 50 words or less to write it in!
For example: the user ahead of me gives me "Gummy worms". Oh great, this might not be the easiest, but here we go!:
Doc's diagnosis was that the tummy ache was just a little bit too much sugar. It was Halloween after all. But when little Suzie said she ate some worms, he had to think twice.
"Gummy worms!" she shouted, and his worry turned to a short chuckle.
OR if you prefer poetry:
Sour Worms
When I rip open a bag
of soft gummy worms,
it's not the sweet-sour taste
I crave.
It is taking that first bite
and knowing that I've chomped apart
the red end and the blue.
Now realize that 50 words comes really fast! Brevity is key! The short story above is 46 words and the poem is 35 (minus the title). That's not a lot.
So without further ado, I will leave the first topic for someone. Remember after you are done with your piece to leave another topic. And if more than one person responds in between (say two people post a poem about gummy worms and leave two different prompts) no worries, just pick the one you are more comfortable with.
