PROMPT May 30th Congratulations on making it to the last day of the competition! What was your favorite prompt from the last month? What was the most rewarding aspect of participating in the competition? Well, thank you! I think the most rewarding aspect of the competition is the interaction of the participants. As I read all the entries and then comment on them, I learned a little about everyone. Some took the prompts literally, some took creative license. All were quite wonderful. Now, the favorite prompts. They were all good, maybe I noticed a few repeats. But I picked out two I liked. May 18 - the one of a kind item. That was a good one. May 27 - your first _____. I took it a different way. I did my last _____. That’s me. Do something different. Last night I watched ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ on Montana PBS. A movie from 1962 by David Lean, an amazing, true story of an unconventional man. The cinematography, the sheer amount of actual actors; no computer magic here. All those camels are real. All the people are actual people. https://www.cliohistory.org/thomas-lawrence/akaba So it reinforces in my mind that it is okay to be your own voice. This film won many awards. Deservedly so. Perhaps my writing won’t win big awards, and that is okay. I will stay true to myself. Til next time 30 DBC. |
