First challenge will be posted a day in advanced for people who may not be up at the time. But that will be the only time!
-Themes are open to your own interpretation. Write what you feel the theme is saying in your own way.
-The theme will be closed off at 12 A.M Pacific Time (US) [please convert the time with a time converter if you are having difficulties.]-Although you can't use the theme from one day for a different day, you CAN continue a story from a previous theme. For example, if you wrote a story and a few days later, feel that the current day's theme fits with a past story, you are allowed to continue your story with the new theme. Just make sure to label the themes you use!
-YOU decide how long your writing will be: a drabble, poem, or a full-fledged fanfic. It's up to you ^_^
-Agreeing to join this challenge, your writings are open to critiques.-Remember to be kind to one another and be considerate.-If your writing isn't complete by the time the theme ends, you must post whatever you have done onto the group.
-You can post your writing beforehand. Just make sure it is by 12AM PST
The theme for day 1 is "Ripped Apart"
I want to say I've never been torn
that I am as unbreakable as spider's silk
that my ego is stronger than metal alloy
that my pride is bigger than Simba's
But I can't
I want to say the wind takes only weakness
that the rain patters off me like I'm waterproof
that the sun blisters everything but my soul
that the Earth's gravity can't keep me down
But those, too, are lies
The truth is, I have been ripped apart
the world IS heavy on my shoulders
the earth's gravity does keep me down
The truth is...I'm human.
Not Perfect. Not Mr. Brightside.
I'm just...me.
A kid named Arnold.
