Though I only received two prompts today, both were wonderful and challenging. Here are the stories that spoke to me via the prompts.
Redemption
Shanna appreciated the solitude of her self-imposed exile. The lands and peoples she had come to know had changed her irrevocably. But today, she would return home. Today she would find redemption and take back what was rightfully hers, banishing the monster hidden in the deepest recesses of her soul.
Twitter prompt from @imagestoby: exile, redemption, solitude
Tall Tales
Deep below the lake’s azure surface, Ralphie maintained, lay a dinosaur graveyard, its reflection visible only at midnight.
Skeptical, Jack nonetheless shivered in the dark beside him. Midnight struck. Ralphie laughed, maneuvering his robotic dinosaur along the beach, only to freeze as a giant T-Rex head rose up behind it.
Twitter prompt from Shirley via @imagestoby: azure, reflection, T-Rex.
Thanks to @imagestoby and Shirley for the great prompts. I hope I did them justice. And I hope you enjoyed reading them. Please share if you feel inclined, and comments are always welcome! Follow me on Twitter or Facebook to take part in prompt week.
I cannot find the Facebook group to find the prompts. Great stories!
Excellent stories. I enjoying reading them, read them twice. You did justice to the word prompts. Thanks. This is fun fueling your imagination.
