Looks around and doesn't see anyone. Well, then I guess I have the prompt page for a moment. Renee is off so I'm slipping in to introduce the prompts to everyone. Happy Friday! It's been two weeks since you were given something new, but then last week you were all given the Fall Anthology - Blurred Edges. I do hope you read and commented on them. Missed them? Find them here - http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/blog/258/entry-15753-2015-fall-anthology-blurred-edges-now-live/
First up I have something new to tempt your creativity. Yes, once again I have a whole new set of prompts to tease you into writing something new, maybe even writing for the first time. Just a few things to remember: Prompt responses under 1,000 words must be posted as part of a collection.
Prompt 446 – Creative Tag -List of Words Use the following in a story – notebook, pen, coffee, a crystal, and a broken light bulb
Prompt 447 – Creative Tag – The Gift You haven’t been feeling well lately, but you still try to keep up with your normal routine. You’ve been asked to a party, and although you don’t feel well, you decide to go. The only request is that as a gift you give something homemade. What do you give as your gift?
Now looking back at the list of prompts there seem to be so many takers, not only of the prompts I create but of those AC Benus creates for the Poetry Prompts. After seeing all the different work that has been done, I figured it was only fair to highlight a bit of everyone's work that published since the last prompts were given to you. Enjoy them all.
Prompt 442 - You were asked to use a list of words. Well, author Puppilull decided to go back and continue his story about the vampire.
The rest of his story can be found here - https://www.gayauthors.org/story/puppilull/puppilullspromptresponses/2
Prompt 444 - You needed to use the first line given. This had a number of responses.
