How Fiction Friday works
Fiction Friday is easy to do.
-
Every Thursday, just check this page for this week’s theme or challenge.
-
Spend at least 5 minutes composing something original based on the theme or challenge.
-
But, remember, no editing. This is to inspire creativity not stifle it.
-
On Friday, simply post what you wrote to your own blog.
-
Then come back to Write Anything and leave the link in the comment section below.

Write Anything 
Thanks for another stimulating challenge, Fiction Friday always throws out some interesting ideas.
After an intial cringe at the idea of having to write about sport … I got a flash igniting a few ideas I had been carrying around for ages … and got to hold my promise to some friends I would write about roller derby.
James – your story rocks!
Thiss was fun to write, although I’m so not into sports that I twisted it a bit. So here’s mine: http://mdbenoit.com/blog/2009/05/29/fiction-fridaytime-out/
This was very scary for me. I’m not used to showing the first draft to anyone. However, doing the poetry instead of the story seemed less scary because I have lower expectations of myself.
Thank you for hosting this task. Though I was scared at first, I had a lot of fun. It definitely got my creative juices flowing.

Ha ha – I love this! I love the fact we are all so different in our perceptions and many immediately saw the prompt as sports orientated. I hadn’t even though of that till I saw some of your comments. Time Out for me is two things – a teaching tool for withdrawal of disruptive students – many schools I worked in had time out rooms or spaces – and a dramatic tool for characterization derolling …its an acting thing.. I went with the spirit of the latter for my story, naming a specific ‘mysterious’ ritual or understanding.

oh and I do read everyones – I often have problems posting my comments on blogs – especially Williams -which really frustrated me as I like to give constructive feedback.
