Welcome to the 6 minute challenge!

Today’s prompt is:

*****For any participants that do NOT like restrictions, please feel free to participate in any way you would like. It is great to read the contributions!****

1. Set up a timer or sit near a clock so you can keep track of the six minutes you will be writing.
2. You can either use one of the prompts (photo or written) or you can free-write.
3. Get ready and write for 6 minutes, that is it! Can you write a complete story? Can you think of a new Sonnet? Can you write 400 words? 400? 500? There are no restrictions on what kind of writing you do, but you should try to be actively writing for six minutes.
4. After you are done writing, include your word count and then post back to this page #Simply6Minutes or include your link in the comments section. Pingbacks are enabled.
5. *Feel free to leave your work completely unedited. I believe it is good to see, especially for new writers, that even very seasoned writers don’t write a perfect first draft.*
6. Have fun, challenge yourself if you’d like, read and respond to others’ posts.

Thank you for participating!

My Contribution:

Hello? Is anyone home?

Where is everyone? I told them not to leave the hole unattended and open. I guess I will go check to see if someone is nestled up in one of the sleep chambers.

A wasp is so mad
that his house was alone
He felt like a dad
or a dog with a bone
He was not too happy
to come home and find
an empty, cold nest
He was out of his mind.
