It is Friday. That means the weekend is upon us. So I am inspired to come up with today’s prompt beased on the roughly 60 hours of leisure between now and the start of the work week. Today’s prompt is… RELAX.

Summer Writer’s Challenge: Day
It is Primary Election Day in Maryland. Today we get to vote for our political party’s candidate for Governor along with a slew of local spots. The traffic was light at our polling place, and, frankly we aren’t supposed to have a big turn out. Election years that don’t align with a Presidential election seldom see long lines at the poles. But when I think of all the people in the world who don’t have the power to freely elect a representative government, and the struggles that so many people in this country went through to get the franchise I wouldn’t miss the chance to vote. My beliefs might not align with a candidate’s platform 100%… but, I’m still going to vote. I owe it to those who don’t have the power to cast a ballot. I owe it to the women and minorities of a not so distant US History to step into that booth.
So choosing today’s prompt was easy … VOTE.

Summer Writer’s Challenge: Day 20
Another beautiful day in this neck of the woods. Hope you all are enjoying good weather as well. My sweet, crazy dog is currently sleeping on my feet letting me know she loves me. So I dedicate this word prompt to her. Today’s prompt is DOG.

Summer Writing Challenge: Day 19
The weather is delightful this morning and we took the opportunity to go outside and play in the garden. Two hours later I’m pooped and covered with dirt and mulch, but happy. So today’s prompt is Garden.

Summer Writing Challenge: Day 18
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. The writing gods are laughing at me. What a silly mortal I was yesterday! Thinking that I’d be able to use my iPad to post a creative prompt between voice lessons! Thinking I’d have time to write something. HA! My muse just shakes her head, half in amusement, half in pity.
So, in hopes of appeasing the gods, the writing prompt is MUSE.

Summer Writing Challenge
Ahhh Summer… My hubby has a weather gauge in his office and I just checked. It is 93 degrees outside, and 85 in the house. All is humid in sticky in Charm City Baltimore. We had a wicked winter, and I’m waiting for one of my friends who pined so longingly for Summer to complain about the heat so I can whack them with a Fla-Vor-Ice freezee pop. (NO I wouldn’t really do that.)

Anyway, before I melt away I should give you today’s prompt… HOT.
Summer Writing Challenge: Day 16
When I write I like to curl up in my super comfortable La-Z-boy lounge chair with a pad of paper, a couple of extra sharp pencils, and a nice tall glass of ice water. There are two problems with this. 1.) The dog, my beloved cockapoo, Honey, has a Pavlovian response to my kicking back in the chair, and always needs to go out just as I settle in to write. 2.) The chair is so comfy that it often lulls me to sleep if I am not actively writing. That is to say if I’m thinking about what to write next… or noodling out dialog in my head… or trying to get character A to location X I have a tendency to get very drowsy. Usually a gulp of ice water will bring me back in focus, but in honor of my La-Z-boy I give you today’s writing / creative prompt: SLEEP.

Summer Writing Challenge: Day 15
Looks like yesterday’s post didn’t go through so I’m doing it again today. Sorry!
It is Day 15 of our Summer Writing Challenge, and since it is Father’s Day I’ll keep it simple and use FATHER as our prompt for today.
Happy writing every one… And Happy Father’s day.
