New Stories

I found a free ebook with 52 writing prompts in it. I'm on my second week.

My first story is a zine - something my sister wanted me to try out. The history of zine's are quite interesting, but it's basically just a self-made small magazine. My content is a story that I wrote. My prompt was "botched alien abduction." I then went through all of the magazines I have and pulled/cut out pictures or words that I wanted to use. After that, I formed my story. I have yet to put it together, but once I do, I'd like to take pictures and post it up here. I really wanted this story to be silly and stupid. I think I got it just right.

Today's prompt is a black and white picture of a boy holding balloons. It's titled "A Boy and His Balloons."  I some how connected this with the things I see on the job. The story starts out with the main character talking to his therapist. I really have no idea where this story is going, but I've made a few notes in my journal.

I'm really excited to re-start with writing. Stay tuned to hear more about what I'm writing :-)
