I sure what I wanted to do for my first weekend anything-goes party, but I think I came up with something. I pulled out some of my old notebooks and started looking at a few of the prompts I'd written in the past and came up with something totally different. Okay, it's not totally different, but it's not something I'd done before. I'm taking a little bit from different ideas I'd had in the past and merged them all together. Here's the idea. I'm going to post 5 different characters, 5 different places, and 5 different items. You can either mix and match them, use them in order, or if you're up for a killer challenge, find a way to use them ALL in one story. Here we go:
Characters
1.) Michael Abernathy--A lawfirm accountant with a secret in his past
2.) Jason Peters--An aging race car driver fighting with his inner demons
3.) Angela Morganstern--A twice-married school teacher who makes a life-changing decision
4.) Childress--A single dad trying to connect with his teenaged daughter
5.) Riley Fitzpatrick--A Vegas showgirl searching for the mother she's never known
Locations
1.) A parking garage in California
2.) A long forgotten cemetery at the edge of town
3.) A restaurant in New York City
4.) A corn field in Iowa
5.) A fishing boat in the Gulf of Mexico
Props
1.) A purple crayon
2.) A set of pearl earrings
3.) A linen napkin
4.) A toy car
5.) An antique parasol
There ya go kids. Mix and match, play with them all, but whatever you do, WRITE!!! Have fun my friends. Happy Writing!!!!!
Childress, in a cornfield, with the purple crayon. NICE!
