As a throwback to the very first contests I ever entered I will be accepting short stories (*1,000 words or less) and *poems (32 lines or less) to four memorable prompts from this year.
Follow the rules of each prompts contest! My very first submission was disqualified from the writers cramp because I forgot to bold the keywords. Don't make the same/similar mistake with word counts and not posting in {b-item:#######} format.
Prompt 1: - Write a story or poem describing a spiritual or out of body experience
caused by a workout or extreme activity.
Prompt 2: *
- In 300 words or less, write a story using the
BOLDed phrase "
we never saw them again".
Prompt 3: *
- Write a poem on the resurrection.
Original prompt and my submission
March 2013 Prompt
Both Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday are in March this year. If Christ had not been raised from the dead, He could not have gone to Heaven. If He had not gone to Heaven, He could not come again, to take us to heaven with Him. Write a poem on the resurrection.
Prompt 4: - Write a story or poem about a competition between crossword puzzlers.
At least 4 lines must be in the form of a crossword answer key (Answers don't have to be realistic but extra kudos if they are!)
Bonus prompt: Share your list of thanks... rhyme it, time it, [narrate it if you choose]... read it to your loved ones on Thanksgiving day or print it out and leave it at their holiday gathering place-settings; it will be a gift they never forget.
