December Writing Wall

December is full of sights, sounds, smells, and memories. Write about one of your memories, real or imagined, using rich language to create a vision in the readers mind....

November Writing Contest

November is a time of giving thanks for the bounty of the harvest and all the things we are fortunate enough to have in our lives. Take some time to think about all the things you are thankful for. Try to think beyond things that are material (possessions) and to things that aren't like love, family, pride, etc.

This month's contest has two options...
1. Write about why the things you thought about are meaningful to you. Be descriptive. Let the reader really feel your emotion!

OR

2. Write about what it would be like if you lost some or all of these things. How would you feel? How would your world be different? How would you overcome this obstacle? Be descriptive. Let the reader really feel your emotion!
