Enter With Inspiration
Hey There,
Okay so.. this is how this is gonna work. You will derive your story from a picture.Yes, I've done this before and sometimes not very well. So, hopefully this time your inspiration is heightened. Write a story based either on your chosen picture or inspiration from one. Story can fall into any category, (Unless Listed as unacceptable in the rules) please use your words vividly and carefully.
Rules and Info will be listed below:
Come Out WIth an Idea
Instructions:
Imagine your story as a canvas, a blank canvas that needs to be painted on. Your story, is the paint and I am the art dealer. I will read your stories and choose the winners. The points are pretty high, if I get more entrants I might heighten it.
The point of the picture is to inspire you to write something long term with no end, or something short term with lot's of detail and ideas packed inside.
Choose from the listed Pictures Below:
For The Innocent Hearted:
For the Aged Group- 16 yrs and older : )
Other Art- Misc.
For Animal Lovers-
Above Picture: I know the picture of the above horse is NOT an Andalusian but a Pinto. Any Andalusian Breeder would be horrified to see his stallion bred to a Paint mare, or any mare who wasn't a Andalusian.
Just FYI.... moving on.
Portrait Of a Horse/ Thoroughbred

Hm...the objects are giving me a hard time, as single things don't inspire me much.
Maybe some abstract pics would've done it for me.

Abstract pictures huh? Maybe I could find a few.. this is why we have friends.. lol. I'll see if I can dig up some abstract pictures and get them on the contest. : )
Thanks for the input,
