aldersprigAfter ravenswept's meme and with permission, kc_obrien and I present the second 30 days meme.
The rules, such as they are:
Write something of approximately 250 words, +/- 50 words, to each prompt.
Go wild with genres (ex; prompt 25 is "noir" but it's meant as more a mood/flavor).
Have fun.
If, like some people I know (*cough* Clare *cough*), you don't like flash fiction, feel free to write 30 parts of a very strange 7500-word short story.
As an added bonus! Prize! If you complete the 30 prompts by September 16, 2011, and I know you're doing this meme, I will enter your name into a random drawing for a $10 Barnes&Nobel or Amazon.com gift card.
Here is your month of prompts:
1) the story starts with the words "It's going down."
2) write a scene that takes place in a train station
3) the story must involve a goblet and a set of three [somethings]
4) prompt: one for the road
5) write a story using an imaginary color
6) write the pitch for a new Final Fantasy styled RPG
7) prompt: frigid
8) write a scene in the middle of a novel called "The Long, Dirty Afterwards."
