Directions: You can learn more about Writer’s Workshop here….it’s never too late to jump in!! Here is what you must do:
- Choose a prompt that inspires you most.
- Write.
- Come back this Thursday and paste the URL from your actual post (do this by clicking the title of your post after you hit publish, an extended URL will come up in the address bar. That’s the URL you want to use) into the Mister Linky that will be up…this way anyone can click on your name and head over to your place to see what you wrote.
Feel free to write on more than one prompt if you so desire. I do it all the time, but it’s my game…and I don’t know how to shut-up…so it should be expected. And remember the more comment love you give, the more comment love you get so comment comment away.
The Prompts:
1.) The popular girls.
2.) It happened at work.
3.) “How long until you realized you had no talent or patience for this? Tell the story (true or fiction) of trying to learn a new talent or hobby that you only pursued briefly.”
4.) “Who first told you that it’s not nice to stare? Write about a time you stared when you maybe shouldn’t have, or a time when sometime stared at you.”
5.) Describe a happy reunion.
(inspired by the following video):

I’m crying way too early in the morning!! great video! I will try to write something this week.
I cried through the entire video. (Wow.)
Omg, way to make me sob in the middle of the living room. My ex bf is in the military and I remember the first time I saw him after he left for basic. He got back at two am and I met him at his front door and he was standing there in his uniform. It was quite honestly one of the best nights of my life. I remember just staring at him, in awe that he was actually home and here and still ok. Just that feeling of being about to kiss someone and to hold them when you have been missing them so badly that it’s a physical pain… it’s amazing.
OMG, I’m crying like a baby! Wasn’t expecting that! The sacrifices of not only our soldiers, but their families is amazing to me. I just can’t stand to watch the little ones like that! Missing their daddies so much it hurts. It just doesn’t seem right…Thank you to all of our armed forces!
The video brought me to tears.
I should never have watched this at work! But oh my gosh. What an amazing video!
Loved that video! It’s just absolutely precious to see the kids reactions. I can’t imagine being separated from my family for such a long time.
I am bawling here. I need to post this as I just did a post today about crying. Wow. Thanks for sharing.
