Two guys arm wrestling. Is it a friendly contest or are there much higher stakes? |
Prompts
- Deep within the depths of the earth, something is happening.
- "I do not think the forest would be so bright, nor the water so warm, nor love so sweet, if there were no danger in the lakes." CS Lewis
- Tonight is Vampire night in Romania when vampires are said to rise from their graves. Write a Vampire tale.
- Edison first demonstrated his phonograph, the first device for recording the human voice. Write a story about a recording.
- In the US and increasingly in the UK as well, around now is Black Friday, a day when sales are held, often with crazy reductions. Shops have been known to turn into riot zones. Write a story about a sale. Do your characters queue overnight to get the bargain of a lifetime? Do they interact with others in the queue? What does your character have to do to get the item they want?

- Interested in politics or astrology.
- Possibly psychic.
- Cut to the chase and quickly get to the point in discussions.
