Freewrite #6: This Stain Wont Come Out…

Wow, it’s already time for the sixth freewriting challenge! Before I give the theme to you, I wanted to take a moment and acknowledge the lovely people who’ve participated since the first challenge:

The list is small, however, their work should be mentioned!

The idea behind these “challenges” is to get you to write something WITHOUT editing. In fact, your only challenge is to ignore your inner critic.

Are you ready?

The theme for this freewrite is “This stain wont come out…”

I don’t know about you but this theme tickles my creative muscle!

What stain? How did it get there? Is this a literal stain or a figurative one? Oh the possibilities!

You’ve got two weeks! Post it on your blog and leave a link in the comments.

      No problem on both accounts. Your response to my other prompt was very funny–it had to be mentioned 😀

      Love it. Your poem was about a figurative stain on the soul, right? Very thought provoking 🙂
