Hello, everyone! Yes, this is my second prompt contest - my first was a flop. But I like giving prompts and a lot of people like getting them. I've got options (again): Plain Old Regular Prompts, Twisted Prompts, Song Prompts, Picture Prompts, Quote Prompts, Title Prompts, Fairytale Prompts, and Fanfic Prompts.
Plain Old Regular Prompts: Very plain, and very regular. Very inspirational. I'll give you some things to include and a question to answer within the story.
(Ex: Must Include: a wolf, a girl, a book, and a microwave oven
Must answer this question: Immortality: Curse or Gift?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All-Around Twisted Prompts: Tell me what genre you usually like, and then what genre you'd like to try out. For example, if you usually write fantasy, you might be asked to write a high-school drama. This, I think, is one of the best ways to unblock your writer's block: break your mold! Try something new! Who knows? You might actually like it (
)!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Song, Picture, Title, and Quote Prompts: Tell me which one(s) you want - from one to all four, if you really want to challenge yourself.
-~-Song Prompts: I'll either give you a link to the lyrics of the song, or I'll type a verse or two right into your prompt.
-~-Picture Prompts: I'll give you a link to the picture.
-~-Title prompts: I'll type the title right into your prompt.
-~-Quote Prompts: I'll type the quote right into your prompt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fanfic Prompts: Tell me what story you want to be prompted about.
-~-Here are some books I've read-~-
Harry Potter
Twilight Saga
Looking Glass Wars
Maximum Ride
Peter and the Starcatchers
The DaVinci Code
(and much much much much more... Message me with any questions.)

The sun has set and Rochelle Vinwere was getting hungary. It has been almost 24 hours since her last decent feed and her stomach was rumbling. She wandered into the kitchen to her parents hastily devouring their dinner. 1by Meej 600 words, 4 comments, on Oct 9 11:08 PM 2008• Commented on by judge.

Thank You!
Thanks so very much for the bronze trophy and all the points. I appreciate them. I'm very pleased that you like my story. I've been told that I should start a series of Emily Thimble stories.
I hope you enjoyed your contest.
Thanks for hosting.
