    APRIL 2024 -- 75 WORD WRITING CHALLENGE

    What goes around comes around The screen dimmed. “Well?” “I reason it is a dangerous line you are pursuing.” “Not stimulating?” “Not in the way you are intending.” “I will continue. I conclude that, with enough repetition, their media output will be indistinguishable from our own.” A...

    DISCUSSION THREAD -- March 2024 -- 75-Word Writing Challenge

    Congrats @Victoria Silverwolf . Thanks for the mentions folks. I started out with a typical legend tale about a mountain spring and a nature spirit. However, the lure of adding in as many variations of 'spring' was just too hard to resist. Also, the first iteration bored me, let alone any...

    DISCUSSION THREAD -- March 2024 -- 75-Word Writing Challenge

    I didn't struggle as such but deliberately avoided it in the traditional sense of legend. Trying to be a bit different. I had more fun with getting as many 'springs' in as possible :p

    MARCH 2024 -- 75 Word Writing Challenge --VICTORY TO VICTORIA SILVERWOLF!

    Tuilë laire There be one spring in this vale; That doth spring from the mountain so hale. A spring of glorious teal; Comes ere the spring with infectious zeal. Spring! The sailors they leap long; Hauling the spring with boisterous song. As the tavern erupted, the elven bard Tarnathleon bowed...

    I'd suggest we spring into action... but I'm a bit sprung out today.

    Why? Why give me this insane challenge. That's like a crimson scrap of material to a male bovine.

    DISCUSSION THREAD -- February 2024 -- 75 Word Writing Challenge

    Congrats @The Judge . Consternation at the genre made me forget the theme. I'm annoyed at myself for that as it could have been included with ease. Not that it would have garnered any votes or mentions. Romance only works for me if it is tinged with sadness or horror. I'm sure a psychologist...

    I'm not one for romance novels. Indeed, when they called stuff like the Twilight series "Dark Fantasy", I had to be dragged kicking and spluttering from Waterstones. I went with @paranoid marvin just because he made me chuckle rather than attempt to shatter this stone heart of mine.

    Lethal Company

    Believe the hype, if played in a team of 4, Lethal Company will have you in stitches. Beyond the sheer silliness there is a good challenging game.

    Ok, got some time to think about the 75. Theme - Destiny - ok, I can do that. Genre - Romantasy - wait, what? Nope, just nope. No chance... unless I can do something horrid with it? Is that possible? I've not got the Dark Lord married off yet. Even if we weren't in the sombre family times, I...

    I'm rubbish at guessing but will give it a go. I'm more likely to get some correct if I randomise the list :LOL:
