You are behind the wheel of your vehicle driving

Where is your destination?

What are you running to?

What are you running from?

Who are you going to meet?

Is it love that is your driving force or is it hate?

What makes you get behind that wheel and drive?

Tell me your story. It can be in a poem/short story/or even a letter. I don't care just tell me about your trip. How you got to where you are now.

Rules are easy:

No sticky caps
No chat speak
No bashing religions
No bashing other writers
No backgrounds in which I can't read your work.

Please use SPELL CHECK it is your friend.

However, you can use backgrounds. I like pictures and backgrounds. I think it only helps with your work if it is chosen well.

I usually say no suicide or cutting works but this time I won't say that because you might come up with a good idea and I just don't want to limit you in any way.

I want you to use imagination. Be original. Don't just tell me about your trip. Make me feel what you do on the trip. Be creative. Use everything you can to be original. The more you are original in your writings the more I will notice you. And in this that is a good thing.

Thanks for joining this contest and the most important rule is simply HAVE A LOT OF FUN.

    Well after dark we made it to Toad River, a run-down hotel with holes in the mattress box-springs and water that smelled like sulfur.

    My, my, I have an incredible story for you, a journey that took me 5,123 miles in the middle of December 2003. Can this be non-fiction?

      can be anything you want... fiction, nonfiction, poem, story, fairy tale, an outright lie... truth. I don't care. I'll read whatever you write and go on from there.
