Random Words Exercise - Oct. 31: You Pick the Words, We Write The Stories

advertisement

I am going to revive this Random Words exercise today - and another one (celebrity challenge) on Monday - since there seems to be more interest lately in these writing challenges. This delights me to no end especially when we have some new to these exercises - like Ladybug and Blaise and Sedekka - who impress me greatly.

This is in addition to the Writing Down the Bones weekly exercise (current theme is television) and the monthly perspective exercise (current ones are writing from the point of view of a pumpkin and writing from the point of view of a ghost. I just offered a combined exercise, i.e. write from the point of view of a pumpkin ghost. I have mine in my head and will write it later today.

Here is an example of how this random words exercise worked on a prior month here.
