I want to write a new short story…but I need your help!
Please leave a one or two word comment on this post, and I will weave all of the comments into a story! I will need names, locations, activities, personality traits, plot themes, and whatever else you all can give me. We are starting from a blank page.
I can’t wait to hear from you!
Follow my blog to see what kind of story I end up posting. While you wait, feel free to read some of my other stories and poems. I’d love to hear what you think!

Caustic tongues
January 17, 2013 at 1:49 pm
Haha…way to give me a word I’ve never heard! Would you like expound on what you mean? So far, google & Merriam-Webster have informed me that “caustic” refers to extreme sarcasm. Sound right to you?
January 17, 2013 at 2:00 pm
Yup, you’ve got it. I look forward to seeing where you take it!

Me too! I also hope more people provide content. If not, I should have a very biting story indeed.

Alright! I posted Part 1! Let me know what you think. Much more to come!

Bikini Atoll

Hmm…had to research that one too. This would actually make a great location for what I’m working on! How did you hear about this place?

I remembered it from documentaries I’ve seen in the past regarding nuclear testing, and seemed like an exotic locale with lots of potential for a good story

volleyball–sports should lend itself to plenty of caustic tongues!!
also how about a setting in Hawaii?

Volleyball can work! Hawaii AND Bikini Atoll…it looks like this may be beach volleyball! Thanks for the input!

Christianity is all about love. So write a love story? Between a man and a woman preferably?:-)

Working away at it! Thanks…
I’m about half way through, but I’ve had a lot of distractions, unfortunately.

Take your time! Don’t be like me. Once I write a post I cannot wait to publish it. And later realize I could have written it that much better if only I had the patience.:-)
