May 21 - May 27 New Prompt! New Poll!

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 5, 2013, 2:34 AM




Thank you to ~DangoLovesYou for particpating in the prompt "The Gods Must be Crazy" with her piece:

Tragedy“Have you finished your tragedy yet?”

“I wish,” you sigh, turning your eyes toward the sky. The air is cleaner today. You can see some faint layers of blue beyond the normal brown tint of the atmosphere. It soothes your corroding lungs as you take deep, appreciative breaths.

“You only just started it, haven’t you?” Quinn asks, sounding not quite wary. More like frayed around the edges of his interest in life. He’s walking next to you, hands in his  jean pockets in the usual Quinn fashion.

“You know me so well,” you mutter quietly. It’s a struggle to not become so mesmerized


Current Prompt


May 21 - May 27

A Fork in the Road

This will be your chance to get really introspective. We've all lived through moments in our lives where we're just so sure that we could have done something different. Maybe we could have changed things. Think about one of these moments from your life where you made a choice and write a poem or short story about the choice you could have made and the life that resulted from it.

Prompt Results


The members pick for the prompt "I Start My Day" is ~Estafina with their wonderful piece:

The End of TimeI start my day like no other man in the entire universe. It begins with the waking, to just a little less light each morning. Then the perpetual hours of watching and waiting, waiting for death.

I’m the only one who has been this far out. This far forward in time. There’s a perfectly good reason why I’m the only one. I went too far. I went all the way to the end of all time, and now I can’t go back. I’m officially the very last time pilot in the entire universe, in all the universes, but no one will ever know except me.

I’ve been marooned here for three weeks by Earth time, watching Time pass on the other

I've been annoyingly busy with school work and of such, currently the month of examinations for us in the UK. If I am able to steal away a few wisps of time I may try and give this current prompt a go.

We'll just have to see what the future will bring, I suppose.

So far I'm the only one who answered this prompt... Did I do it wrong? It's my first time, but I thought there would be more submissions...

No, you did it right (and quite well). Sadly, I cannot inject enthusiasm for writing into our fellow members. :no:

We usually get about three entries. (I know out of 3000 people that sounds a bit ridiculous right?)

I'll inject them with enthusiasm :shakefist:

It stinks, the prompts are always so good. I mean, I at least enjoy participating with them. :(

Seriously? I would think it would be flooded. This is such a well-maintained group, and the prompt is awesome. Why join a writing group if not to write? Well, I'll definitely answer prompts from now on. Thanks!

Awww crud. I already have an entirely worked out religion with all the gritty details and flaws complete with a history of priests and followers and nations.

And y'know what? It's already posted.

Buuuut I guess if I can do it once I can do it again.
