I wanted to say that I am sorry about the loss of your parents. I lost my parents a year and a half apart, so I understand how you must feel. I hope that memories of them are a blessing to you.
As long as our messes end up being fine... Nice entry.
And yes, local movie theaters were the thing in my much younger times and going there with the family or an adult was a highlight.
In remember turning 21. It was a good Birthday. You enjoy Birthdays the most when you are a kid. Mine is right before Christmas so I get double gifts. A good entry.
Oh well, we can’t win them all can we? I got disqualified last month. It’s all grist for the mill though.I think so long as we are happy with our story or poem that all that matters.
Prompt: Do you ever write stories just using dialogue? Write about this in your Blog entry today.
I love writing dialogue. One of my favourite contests is Dialogue 500. It gives me the freedom from writing dialogue tags. It leaves it up to the reader to imagine what each character is doing as they speak or how their words are portraying emotions. There are ways of informing without tags by questions such as “ Why are you crying?”
Or “why has your face gone that colour? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
Dialogue is so much better than an info dump, it can tell the story in a more informative and interesting manner.
I’m tempted here to give an example of one of the five hundred word limit entries into the dialogue contest. The prompts are usually whacky and way out which is usually hilarious.
