Description:

We all think differently. We see and interpret things in different ways.

For this swap I will give you a single line that I have ACTUALLY heard in common every day conversation and you will write a story based around it and send a copy to your partners. If this swap is good, I will do more with lines I have heard in conversation. Then you can have a book of short stories the more you do!

Stories should be about 2 pages long but can be as long as you like. If you are like me...that could be veryyyy long. You send the same copy to all 3 of your partners. That way we can all see how each other think.

  • TYPED only please. If you like you can even make it into a creative binding or just a plain staple!

  • International as that it is just a writing swap.

  • 3 partners to send to! You send the SAME story to each one!

  • Feedback is 4.7 or above. Newbies please send me a reference.

  • The line is:

The day care was next door to the nursing home.

This sounds like a lot of fun, and a good way to jump start a writing project....I was so excited, I started writing this morning. Thanks for the great swap!

yeah it is a great idea to start now! Since we know that enough people have signed up now...you could possibly get these done, packed and ready to go BEFORE the partners even come out

The line is too good. I said I wasn't going to, but now I'm going to try. If it doesn't look like it will happen, I'll drop. But the line is too good!

How is everyone doing???? :) remember there is NO limit on how long it can be

CURIOUS.....If i started a writing swap where we alter a fairy tale...would you join????

CandyStar 05/26/2007 #

I already joined your fairytale swap. Tee hee.

If I stole your creative writing prompt idea and start making my own, would you join them or would you be mad at me? XD
