November Writing Challenge



We were challenged to write a post/short story/blog entry based on the picture above. Here is a short excerpt of the entries (click the title to read the entire entry):

Smoking kills your teeth and gums like schools kill creativity by Danielle
"Why do children have greater creativity and innovation to adults?  Do you think it is just a coincidence that children have incredible imaginations, love getting messy, making music, drawing, painting, and creating stories?  Why doesn't any of this carry into adulthood? Are we truly designed by nature to lose these precious gifts?"

Arthur by Sean Delaney
"Goma in central Congo is a dangerous place. I know, I have lived here all my life. Dangers exist in many forms, there is poverty and social risks and there are gangs of rebels who exist to exist. The gangs give kids purpose, a role and some meaning where otherwise there is nothing."

The Wall by Colton Todd
"Instructional Design is like a creepy wall...
One is a job, the other has eyes and is smoking a cigarette."

Primal Angst by Micha
"A week had passed since I embraced my newfound talent, the skill to understand the nature of things just by looking at them; an ability that – for the lack of a better term – I came to call my “second sight”. My girlfriend Carol was already in full remission. "
